It’s a really good incentive for all the players to do their bit, feel involved and help contribute. Managers/Coaches.. keep scores please.
I’m sure you agree this is the right thing to do, even more so in these very difficult times, and will support the club in supporting these worthy charities.

FA Silent Weekend – Sunday 6th November
Both the Surrey Youth League and the Surrey County Women’s and Girls League are participating in the FA Silent Weekend.
Sheen Lions will be supporting this initiative, all teams are required to play their part.
SYL Statement
Club Secretary, the SYL have chosen to take part in the “FA Silent Weekend Programme” Please see below information from the FA. We ask that all age groups across the entire league take part in this.
FA Silent Weekend
Please play your part in a weekend of football that’ll leave you speechless. We’re promoting a National Silent Support Weekend where leagues and clubs across the country are asking all spectators and coaches to show their support through applause only when the match is in play. This gives players a better opportunity to find their own voice and develop their game. Not sure? Let’s have a go, then tell us what you thought about it. And ask your parents and coaches to tell us too. There will be a short survey, via a digital link shared after the weekend so we can all understand the impact and make improvements for the future.
What to do at the Silent Weekend?
• Allow players to make mistakes
• Allow players to make their own decisions
• Applaud good play and effort from either team
What are the benefits of the Silent Weekend?
• Players can concentrate on the game and not be distracted by the touchline
• Players develop independent learning and decision-making
• Coaches can assess the teams’ communication skills
Join us on the 5th & 6th November 2022 and find out what happens when we turn the volume down for the players on the pitch.
Assets
Please find your asset pack to download:
This has marketing guidance, letters, posters, social media assets and some suggested copy so you can let your parents and coaches know you’re taking part and what they need to do. Many thanks for your Support.

No Matches – Sunday 11th September
Her Majesty the Queen was a long-standing Patron of The Football Association and has left a lasting and indelible legacy on our national game.
As a mark of respect, following the passing of Her Majesty the Queen, English football has united to postpone all football fixtures between 9-11 September including Grass Roots football.
The Surrey Youth League have informed their members that out of respect for HM Queen Elizabeth and the President of The Football Association, Prince William, the decision has been taken by The FA and other football governing bodies that all football fixtures are to be cancelled this weekend. This includes all Surrey Youth Leagues games scheduled for Sunday 11th September.
No football including friendlies will be played.
Sheen Lions F.C. thoughts are with the Royal Family at this very sad time.

Coaches v Parents 2022
Saturday afternoon saw the return of the coaches v parents fixture, this time taking place at Rosslyn Park.
This is a a fixture organised by the coaches to develop the relationship and morale between parents and coaches – and to have a great time!
This year was also designed to raise money for charity in the memory of our friend and fellow manager Terry Buckland.
The game was played in a great spirit and after a few tactical adjustments at half time, the coaches ran out worthy winners.
Well done to all involved and we look forward to the 2023 fixture.
Michael
