snooker

DANCING
Who is enjoying Strictly Come Dancing?! US!!
Having interviewed the immensely talented Will Bayley for our September Table Tennis article (still available to read) we have been especially impressed by his performances with Janette Manrara.
hockey
This month, on 2nd and 3rd November, it’s the GB Hockey Olympic Qualifiers at Lee Valley.

football
The FA’s ‘We Only Do Positive' campaign is for coaches and parents in the football teams you, your friends, schoolmates and teammates play in.
It came about after the FA carried out extensive research in to football from U7s–U18s in 2017/18. From that research they found that something was very clear - 9 in 10 children play better with positive encouragement.
