Aspiring goalkeepers in urban areas do not always have the same opportunities as outfield players. Cage football and casual matches are vital for getting new players involved in football. But, are similar routes available for #goalkeepers? ✍️New piece for @goalkeeper_com
In the 19/20 season, only one of the 42 #PremierLeague players born in London was a goalkeeper. What does this tell us about barriers facing goalkeepers from the UK's urban areas?⚽️🧤 @AD_Waite ✍️ with thanks to Alex Welsh & @citcmancity's Alex Williams goalkeeper.com/news-and-medi…

As part of issue 1 for Footwork Magazine, I spoke to U12 @the_LTA number 1 Hannah Klugman. At just 12 years old she has represented Team GB at @TennisEurope and won the Fred Perry Championship - a very bright talent! #tennis #GB bit.ly/3qbT7fI

Our village Christmas lights are designed by the local primary kids and they are the single best thing about the festive season.

It's wrong to postpone the Women’s FA Cup during lockdown while the men’s competition continues. The Government's special exemption for “non-elite” men's teams but not women’s sends a clear message to women and girls that women’s sport doesn’t matter and isn’t valued.

At the core of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s extraordinary life was a simple conviction: “Women belong,” she said, “in all places where decisions are being made.”

Social distancing works. The London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine estimate that before the lockdown one positive person would infect 2.6 other people. Now it's just 0.62. This means the virus is cornered - it has nowhere to go and will burn out. Good news.

Lovely morning spent @BeckenhamPark today with @GeorginaConn. This was my first visit since October 2016 (when I hacked round the golf course for the final time.) Great to see so many people and families out and about enjoying the new layout and features.

Beautiful afternoon spent @bromleyfc with lifelong fan, Colin Head. Fascinating to hear his thoughts on Bromley's history, future and the new stand.

Whether it's Final Score with a cuppa or dusting off your boots to play for your pub team, Saturday afternoons and football are indistinguishable. Why is this the case? My article for @theCulturalMe explores the history of the 3p.m Saturday kick off. thecultural.me/the-factory-a…
