Sensational start to Fatimah's time with Soccer and Study UK at Leeds Beckett University, spoiled by a nasty knee injury prior to Xmas. 17 goals in 7 games whilst playing for Knaresborough Town Women. Fatimah has been on fire in front of goal and has played a big part in Towns 100% win record which gives the team every chance of finishing the season as Champions.
Everyone at Town is hoping to see Fatimah back as soon as possible.

What a night - tickets for Fatimah to see the Rugby League World Cup semi-final between Australia and New Zealand at Elland Road, the home of Leeds United. A great game, fantastic atmosphere and a chance to see the Haka live - another great experience for Soccer and Study student athlete Fatimah Lapin. Fatimah's summary of the world of Rugby League "Like American Football with no protection"

Manchester City have Erling Haaland and Knaresborough Town Women have Fatimah Lapin. 12 goals in 4 games the pick of which is this volley over the goalkeeper's head to clinch another victory agaInst Fields FC Women. Soccer and Study student athlete Fatimah has made a stunning start both on and off the field of play. Fatimah is studying for a Criminology Masters at Leeds Beckett University whilst scoring goals for fun at Knaresborough Town.
A great contributor to the team with an eye for the goal - expect more fireworks as the season progresses

Great day out down at Wembley Stadium with our Soccer and Study student athlete Fatimah Lapin. Great atmosphere with a near full house to watch the World Champs take on the Euro Champs.
The gap between USA and the top European teams is now very narrow. Great victory for England but my head still says that Spain will be favourites for the World Cup next year if they can sort out internal issues.
2 England games for Fatimah and 2 wins - without doubt our lucky mascot. Fatimah continues to score goals for fun as Knaresborough Town Womens striker - more details to follow in a seperate post.

So now down to the business end of the Euros and a fascinating tie between pre tournament favourites Spain and a resurgent England.
Likely to be a close encounter in front of another full house - expect a great atmosphere and fingers crossed my 2-1 prediction for an England win comes to fruition.
This tournament will be a massive boost to the womens game throughout Europe - why not consider a post grad option at Leeds Beckett University that combines a top quality degree and the opportunity to be part of a vibrant womens soccer scene.

The Euros are coming!! If the recent England v Netherlands friendly was anything to go by prepare yourself for a feast of entertaining football, with goals galore, all played in front of massive crowds generating a great atmosphere. While Spain remain favourites England, on this form, will be a threat to any team. Key player for me will be Lauren H**p.
Buckle your seatbelts and enjoy the ride.
