💙⚽️ 50 GOALS FOR RILEY! ⚽️💙

Today was a really special day for me and for the Hawks, as Riley scored his 50th goal for Glenfield United Hawks. 🥹⚽️

Riley has been with me since his Mini Kickers days, and he’s one of our original boys, joining us when he was just 5½ years old. I’ve watched him grow, not just as a footballer, but as a young lad, and it honestly makes me so proud to see him reach this milestone.

To think back to those early days and now see him celebrating his 50th goal is something pretty special.

And he didn’t stop there today! A fantastic performance from Riley also saw him pick up Managers’ Player. 🏆👏

Riley, you should be incredibly proud of yourself mate. 50 goals for the Hawks is a brilliant achievement, and I’m so proud to have been part of your journey from those Mini Kickers days right through to today.

Here’s to many more goals to come! 💙⚽️

Well done, Riley! ❤️

Congratulations Thorley 🎉⚽

Congratulations to Thorley! 👏

Thorley has been absolutely amazing since joining back with Glenfield, and he came into tonight’s game just 2 goals away from reaching 50 goals for Glenfield.

Well, what better way to do it than by scoring a hat-trick! 🔥⚽⚽⚽

That takes Thorley into the Glenfield Over 50 Goals Club! 🏆🙌

What an achievement, mate. You’ve been brilliant since coming back and thoroughly deserve it.

Well done Thorley — 50+ and counting! 💙⚽👏

What a fantastic day for Glenfield United U8 Foxes at the Freddie Orton Memorial Tournament in Market Bosworth!

The boys were outstanding throughout the day, storming through the group stages with 5 wins and just 1 defeat. They carried that momentum into the knockout rounds, winning their semi-final to secure a place in the final.
After a brilliant effort, the Foxes narrowly lost the final 2-1, but finishing runners-up out of 12 teams is an achievement every player, coach and parent should be incredibly proud of. The team's attitude, determination and teamwork were on display all day and they represented Glenfield United superbly.

A special mention must go to Spencer, who was awarded the prestigious Freddie Orton Sportsmanship Trophy – a unique award with only one recipient per age group.
The award was thoroughly deserved. Through one-on-one with the goalkeeper and in a great position to score himself, Spencer instead chose to pass to a newer teammate who was yet to score for Glenfield, giving him the opportunity to net his first goal for the club. It was a selfless act that perfectly demonstrated what being a team player is all about.
Football is about much more than winning trophies, and Spencer's gesture embodied the values of teamwork, kindness and sportsmanship. We couldn't be prouder of him.
Well done, Foxes – a brilliant tournament and memories to be proud of! 🦊⚽

Under 14's
What a season!
Moved up into division 5 this season, after winning the league last season in division 8. The boys have battled and worked together as a team to finish 4th! So proud of every single one of them, they all had a part to play.

Big thank you to all the parents too for their continued support. Me and Lee couldn't do it without you.

Looking forward to next season 🦅

Enjoy the summer, boys - you've earnt it!! 💪🦅

Our U10s Hawks played in a tournament today and made the final without conceding a single goal 👏⚽

After a 0-0 draw in the final, we unfortunately lost 2-1 on penalties.

Finishing runners-up in the Champions League final was still a brilliant achievement, and the boys should be proud of themselves 🏆💙

A huge milestone reached today for our youngest striker Freddie at Glenfield United U8s as he hit an incredible 50 goals for the season ⚽🔥

An outstanding achievement built on hard work, confidence and determination every single week 👏

To be the youngest in the squad, play an age up and reach this milestone is something really special. The future is bright for this young talent 💫⚽
