Blurton Reds Emeralds FC Staffordshire based FA Charter Standard U15 Girls Football Club

Final game of the season and we went in with just 9 players — but every single girl gave it their all. Heartbreak to concede in the dying seconds, but nothing but pride for this team. What a shift they put in!

The girls smashed it with a 5-1 win this Tuesday evening — great teamwork, great goals, and great weather!

Today is Autism Awareness Day, and at Blurton Reds, we believe football should be a game for everyone. Players with autism bring incredible strengths to the pitch, and with the right support, they can thrive both in football and beyond.

Here’s how we can all be more inclusive teammates, coaches, and supporters:

✅ Clear Communication - Keep instructions simple, direct, and use visuals if needed.

✅ Routine & Structure - Consistency helps players feel comfortable and confident.

✅ Sensory Considerations - Loud noises or sudden changes can be overwhelming - let’s be mindful.

✅ Patience & Understanding - Every player learns differently. Encouragement goes a long way!

✅ Celebrate Strengths - Many autistic players have great focus, memory, and determination - let’s champion that!

Football is more than just a game - it’s a community. Let’s make sure it’s an inclusive and welcoming one for all. ⚽

Back to winning ways with a massive 9-1 victory today!

After a tough few weeks testing ourselves against teams two leagues above, this was the confidence boost we needed.

Proud of the girls for sticking together and bouncing back in style!

This weekend, we’re joining youth teams nationwide for the Silent Support Weekend!

Let’s show our players the respect they deserve by keeping it positive and letting their voices shine on the pitch.

During this weekend, all we need is applause for good play and quiet encouragement from coaches.

Let's make sure our players can hear their own voices and feel the support!

Girls don’t need permission to play football—they’re MADE for this game! ⚽🔥

The journey to equal opportunities isn’t over, and at Blurton Reds, we’re backing the movement to ensure every girl gets the chance to play, compete, and succeed.

Football isn’t just for some—it’s for everyone. Let’s break barriers, change the game, and show the world that girls belong on the pitch! 💪👏

Today, Blurton Reds stand in solidarity with the football community as we observe a minute’s silence in memory of Poppy Atkinson.

Our thoughts are with her family, friends, and everyone affected by this heartbreaking tragedy.

Rest in peace, Poppy. ⚽️🕊️

At Blurton Reds, we’re proud of every girl who steps onto the pitch, supports, and champions the sport.

From our young players dreaming of becoming the next Lionesses to the women behind the scenes making a difference, today is for you!

To all the girls playing football during Ramadan—your dedication and passion never go unnoticed. Whether you're training, competing, or taking time to rest and reflect, your strength on and off the pitch is truly inspiring.

Wishing you a month filled with peace, blessings, and success. Keep shining, keep playing, and keep believing! ✨⚽
