I hope to see more events like these co-productions with the FA Community of Practice EDI Ambassadors and @hertfordshirefa.bsky.social . Thank you for your support Cathie Mackay and Rishi Doshi.

Thank you to @watfordfc.bsky.social and the Watford FC CSE Trust for opening your doors to us. Welcome to the club Madeline Hurley, you’ll be alright with the legend that is Dave Messenger.

MP Matt Turmaine, Cllr Asif Khan and Deputy Mayor of Watford Aga Dychton ; thank you for always being so supportive of events we have in the community!

Also congratulations to @desiballers as this was also the 3rd event in the 15th anniversary celebrations. Shout out Trehan Sport - we smashed it Z & Dev!!!

Thanks to all our speakers: Nadia Akhtar, Saquib Ayubi, Apu Vyas and Geoff Wicken. Massive thank you to Amar Sanghrajka, Shailesh Sanghrajka, Nathan Jopp and Ruiz Rehman; it’s inspiring to see the support you get from Watford FC, the PFA AIMS and most importantly from family!

For me, it was always about the work, about the world I hope we can strive to create. I hope I can inspire the next person to become a champion in their community because we can all do amazing things to help the people around us!

Thank you to Sonia for hosting this event and to @londonfootball.bsky.social and Amanda Lewis for nominating me.

Shout out to my co-winner Maryam Choudary who is doing amazing things with Beyond the Bias. And I want to say a massive congratulations to Screamer Alliance who won the Grass Roots Club award! You are doing amazing things for the community!

The FA England Talent Days are utilised as a player's 1st engagement with the Para Football Pathway and as the first selective environment in the player pathway. The programme will identify and signpost players to the ‘right’ environment at that point in time.

The Asian Sports List celebrates the contribution of ALL Asian communities in the sports industry.

Also good luck to Maryam Chowdhury; though we are in competition, I want to highlight the amazing things you are doing for young people in London with Beyond The Bias.

Sad thing is a lot of people still don’t think this is racism.

Mad squirrel.

#ESEA #notalone #representation

We discussed common challenges in our sports and have started to plan ways we can support each other as well as being a greater voice for the communities that we serve and represent.

I know this is the beginning of something amazing and readying for our next meet up!
