Story:
My daughter has been playing football from the age of 5 which started out with boys as they was no girls teams back then.
She has played for Gilligham RTC, Charlton RTC and Millwall RTC she also played for Kent u14s then u16s. She has travelled miles with these teams upto Norwich we live in kent. She woukd always go to training which was twice a week and even as she got older the training was later so we wouldn't get back home till midnight most nights but she still got up for school the next day and passed her GCSEs that she needed. She went for a few trails with chelsea and always got down to the last 12 but never got picked unfortunately but she loved it when she played at Chelsea training ground at Cobham.
Reason for nomination:
My daughter is nearly 21 and football is her life she still plays now for a local team in the London South East Region league. Even when she didn't get picked for Chelsea she would dust herself off and get back playing again. Football is her life.
