As you know, Maisie was presented with the Lioness of the Year Award earlier this month🏆 This award recognises far more than football. It celebrates courage, resilience and determination in the face of adversity. Last year, Maisie was battling cancer. Throughout her journey, she showed incredible strength, and now she is back doing what she loves most – playing football with her teammates. She continues to inspire everyone around her both on and off the pitch. To support an amazing cause close to their hearts, Maisie's dad, David, is taking on the Manchester 10K to raise money for the Teenage Cancer Trust, helping other young people facing the challenges that Maisie and her family have experienced.
If you would like to support David and help make a difference to young people affected by cancer, please consider donating here:

We are incredibly proud of Maisie and her family. Their strength, positivity and determination embody everything that the Lioness of the Year Award stands for. 💙⚽️💛

Every donation, no matter the size, will help support young people and families facing cancer.

Help David Edwards raise money to support Teenage Cancer Trust

We’re 8 years into our football club journey and what a journey we’ve been on. We’re obviously very child focused on everything we do but yesterday we did something solely for our top team of coaches. Without our volunteer coaches the services we provide wouldn’t happen as they give up their midweek evenings, weekends and spare time arranging matches and sessions.

So yesterday we booked the fabulous facilities at Oldham Athletic as we pitted two teams of SJFC coaches against each other. Team Jordan vs Team Andre in a game that had more up for grabs than just bragging rights. The competitive game ended in a 2-2 draw, however, as there was a trophy on the line a quick penalty shoot out followed resulting in Team Andre lifting the cup.

Two wonderful local charities Springhill Hospice and Dr Kershaws will benefit from the charity game from the monies collected. Big shout out to The Shawside for sponsoring the game and welcoming the group back for food and drink and to Castle Hawk driving range who were the Match Ball Sponsor. Big thanks to the players, families and friends that came down to support that helped create a great atmosphere. There will be some sore old men today but it was definitely worth it

If anybody else would like to donate to one of these wonderful charities then please either drop us an inbox or speak with one of your coaches
