All good things must come to an end ❤️😢
This was certainly one of those emotional moments 🥹
Yesterday marked the end-of-season presentation for Bridgnorth Spartans U13s Boys, and with it, the end of an incredible chapter in Leila’s football journey in our home town.
Leila first joined Spartans at just 4 years old through Soccer School and Football Fun sessions before stepping into her first team at the age of 6 as the only girl in an all-boys team. Over the past seven seasons, she has made lifelong memories, developed as both a player and a person, and been fortunate enough to be guided by three outstanding coaches — Rob, Fletch and Jay ❤️❤️❤️
As a parent, it has been a privilege to watch Leila grow in confidence, resilience and character through football ⚽️
The support, encouragement and dedication shown by her coaches, teammates, volunteers and everyone connected with Bridgnorth Spartans has been nothing short of incredible.
Whilst this chapter comes to a close, an exciting new one begins. Leila will now continue her football journey with Kidderminster Harriers Girls to defend their league title 🏆and also now dedicating more time to her other great passion in life — horse riding, dressage and showjumping 🏇
To everyone at Bridgnorth Spartans who has played a part in Leila’s journey over the last nine years, thank you 🙏
We are incredibly grateful for everything you have done and for the memories you have helped create. The friendships, experiences and life lessons gained along the way will stay with her forever.
Yesterday was emotional, but it was also a celebration of an incredible journey and the beginning of an exciting new adventure.
Once a Spartan, always a Spartan❤️🖤⚽️
