Election post
Hi- I'm Ria!
Ever since I was 3 years old - playing in the driveway with my dad, uncles and brother - I have loved football. It has shaped me, teaching me discipline, teamwork, and resilience, and has become a huge part of who I am. Over the past few months, playing with the 2’s—my favourite team ever—I’ve come to appreciate not just the game itself but also the sense of belonging and community that comes with it. Being part of this team has shown me just how much football can bring people together, creating an environment where every player feels valued and motivated. Next year, I want to take on the role of captain to help foster that same inclusive and supportive atmosphere. I’ve learned that, for UCLWFC, success isn’t just measured by the matches we win but by the strength of our team spirit and our commitment to each other. It’s about showing up for one another, pushing ourselves to improve, and celebrating our progress together. With my enthusiasm, passion, and dedication, I believe I can help lead this team by encouraging and uplifting my teammates, ensuring that everyone feels motivated to keep striving for their best.
In summary, football is more than just a sport to me—it’s a core part of my life. Being captain would allow me to give back to the team that has given me so much, and I would love the opportunity to commit myself fully to this role and to this incredible group of players.
P.S. Bego isn't lying.
