FINDLAY
Finday was recently nominated for player of the season by parents of his teammates for his passion, leadership and encouragement. He is always the first boy to make sure his team mate is ok if they get injured or perhaps make a mistake. He plays on two teams and even if is his turn to miss a match because of rotation he is there to cheer on his team!

NEVE
Neve will make a great captain because she always encourages players to do their best. She makes sure that the team plays as a team and doesnβt rely on one player. Neve motivates players, even if they are being beaten. She would also make sure everyone is having fun and enjoying football.
