I was approached on the weekend by an upset parent because her son had been told he wasn’t being retained for next season. He wasn’t in my team but she wanted some advice on what he should do now. Her son was dejected and when I spoke with him he spoke of possibly quitting football as he’d had a few setbacks and was getting very down about it.My answer was simple. Dust yourself off and keep going. There are plenty of other clubs out there and if football is your dream then you must pursue it. This not only pertains to football but to life in general. You are going to get setbacks and there are times when you think you should quit but these are the times when you show your true character. The path to your goal may not be an easy one and no two people’s paths are the same. Below is an article showing that there is more than one way to get to your final destination.
