Solent Sports is a real boost to helping maintain mental health. Getting out once a week to socialise and play football with a bunch of lads really helps.

Having football on a Monday night is the only reason I tolerate Mondays!

Having Solent Sports has meant I've met an amazing group of women who have improved my life more than any of them will realise. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of it, you're all beautiful people.

Playing with Solent Sports has brought back my love for the game.

Hedge End Mondays are the highlight to my week, An opportunity to be 'me' away from work and being a mummy or a wife. Headspace and the chance to have fun and kick a ball about with a group of amazing and inspirational ladies.

I thought I'd missed my chance to play football, so grateful for the opportunity now to play and with a lovely group of ladies is a bonus.

Ive tried the gym, I get bored, Ive tried running, I get borded, Ive tried swimming, I got bored and wet! So having played during my teenage years I thought football would be the answer. Spoiler Alert.... It was, Mondays are the highlight to my week, I get to play the sport I love with a group of people I love and I'm so grateful to have found such wonderful ladies to share my time with, you all make it what it is.

Solent Sports has given me the confidence to go back to football after a 10 years out. I never thought I'd go back to competitive football, but the friendly, non judgmental atmosphere made it super easy.
