Red Rose girls in snow football challenge

With the lack of sport resulting in players having to be content with weekly quizzes and competitions, the recent snowfall gave the Red Rose FC managers the chance to issue a new challenge to players: to roll the biggest snow football possible.

As the club caters for players from ages 6 to 13, the challenge was judged against the height of each player, which meant the older, taller girls would need to roll bigger snow footballs.

The girls sent in photos of themselves with their snowballs. At the end of the week the winner was Jessie with a snow football taller than herself (pictured).

The runners-up were Sahara, Nelly and Elise, all with a football up to chin level, with Aimee winning the cleanest/whitest snow football prize.

It was all great fun and a brilliant way to get the players outside in fresh air again. Hopefully, we will now be back playing soon.
