First of all, thank you all parents and kids and friends of Star for such a wonderful evening, it meant so much to me and Claire, all the comments, cards and presents etc
For anyone wondering of our decision to step away, it's simple, firstly the club needs structure and stability, secondly Claire works 2 jobs and finally, I want to enjoy my 2 boys playing football 👌👌

Tonight showed what this wee club is capable of going forward and with the backing of the Carson Project and the heart of those talking tonight it will move to the next level.

I received so many kind words tonight and trust me when I say it is because of your kids we have loved our time at Star. There is a reason I shed a tear the first night the littlest Stars got a win, the first Friday Alex came skipping down after a win, when the all-girl's team go out and make a statement, the 2011's go on a winning streak, the 2010's go out and make a statement win and the 2009's get their first win. The reaction of the kids on days like that is something else. It's not just wins but, its reactions on kids faces when they hit a ball like they never connected with it before, when they hit the sweetest tackle ever and even the opposition goes "damn" or when someone stands back and thinks "that girl is just as good as the boys"

Tonight cemented mine and Claire's belief that stands for something special

Thank you all for allowing us to be a part of your children's life it has been an honour

👍👍⚽⚽💙💙

**HELP WANTED**

Star United is now at the stage where we have more than 100 kids across all age groups and still growing.

But to continue growing to the best of our ability we now need some stability and structure.

To move forward we are asking people from in and around the community if they would be interested to get involved behind the scenes or on the grass. Whether you think you'd make a good secretary, perhaps a social media mogul or even in the coaching side of things we want to hear from you.

If you feel you would have the time or commitment to get involved and help the Stars shine then please get in touch with the page and let us know about you 👍👍

Last Thursday saw Star field an all girl's team for the first time and oh my what bright Stars they were.
A dominant perfeo mance including a hat-trick for the one little lady that won't celebrate lol.
Special mention also to the new coaching staff Abbie following in her dad's footsteps 👍👍
There will be a lot to come from these girls although they will continue to develop alongside the boys we will ensure they Star in their own right. 👌👌

Last Saturday morning in Harry Gregg foundation saw a milestone for Star with all 3 teams coming away with the win.
2009's had a great back and forth but their dominance at the end let them come away 5-2 winners.
2010's produced their best performance to date and it was awarded with a 5-1 victory.
2011's had the toughest game with 0-0 up until the last 10 mins and their desire to win took them over the line with 3 goals coming away with the 3-0 win.

MOTM was an overall performance for 2009's. For 2010's Riley was such a dominating presence in defence. 2011's was goalkeeper Ethan for the constant saves to come away with a clean sheet against a good Ballykeel team.

Saturday morning in Coleraine was very positive this week.
2009's went behind to a well drilled Portstewart who took advantage of the sun and wind and cut out the keeper and defence. But Star gradually grew into the game and soon took the lead, there was a bit of back and forth before Star moved out in front by 2 goals to take the win.
2010's started so well and took the lead from a lot of neat play and a great speed on the break. It was perhaps their best complete display especially against a very capable opposition who played some nice football. Unfortunately failing to clear the ball done the harm and in the end we lost by a one goal deficit.
2011's with a great performance yet again from the boys kept on battling and didn’t give up even when they felt decisions weren’t going their way. They showed great resilience to come back from 1-0 down to get a very well deserved victory.

MOTM for 2009's was Rhys G who was very assured at the back, clearing up everything. 2010's was Charlie who pulled off some great saves to keep us in it and wasn't at fault for any of the goals conceded. 2011's split between Tyler and Harley, Harley was his usual self getting about the pitch attacking each and every ball and being in space for the passes and Tyler for how well his confidence has grew after a couple of years out of the game and is fitting in well.

Friday fun at the showgrounds for Small Sided Games as usual.
2 great games for the 2013's group. The Youths lost tightly to a very direct Carniny team, our nerves getting the better of us at first before we grew into the game. Then the Juniors came up against the Larne Ladies who are a fantastic and solid footballing side, but the tight pass and move build ups created too many chances for them to cope with h and with Star on such fine scoring form the goals tallied up well.
2014's lost first game 1-0, second game by a few more and third game 3-2, so the improvements are there and so are the goals at times, the third match showed that when we are confident enough to have a crack and Alfie was rewarded with a goal from the halfway 👏👏

MOTM 2013's first match was Ryan with his best performance in a Star shirt to date 👌👌. Second game was Danny, 3 well taken goals and a brilliant midfield performance always looking for the forward pass and being a great link moving the ball up the pitch. For the 2014's is split between Alfie and Ricksen who are our two main aggressor's and continue to cut out many attacks.

Friday nights games saw the 2013's continue to field 2 teams and performances are still there.
The first team was an utter dominant performance that showed the boys and girls are really listening and developing playing lovely football. The second team came up against tough opposition but after being 6-0 down brought it back to only lose by the one goal at 8-7.
The 2014's continue to grow with a total of 12 players turning up for small sided games and the only fault was the manager for rotating too much but the game time at this point is very important and several goals proved that including a debut goal for Ryan whilst his twin Chris continued to impress in nets.

MOTM
2013's First game was Leah who was outstanding alongside Zack giving him the confidence to push forward and second game Lucas who continues to real wee workhorse on the pitch and it's showing with the goals now. Special mention to Charlie for the goalscoring form he has currently.
2014's goes to the twins Chris and Ryan who are proving a great addition to the squad
