Being Red: ‘Gaining my self-confidence’

The 13-year-old first attended the Kicks sessions over three years ago and hasn’t looked back since. Having impressed with her footballing ability and attitude, she was encouraged to trial for Liverpool and is now an important part of the girls’ U14 development squad.

Jessie said: “Coming to Kicks gives me joy and it keeps me healthy. In the future, I just want to carry on playing football and stay driven to hopefully go and play professional football for Liverpool and maybe be in the World Cup for England Women.”

Participating in the Kicks sessions allowed Jessie to gain self-confidence and bring out the best of her footballing ability, which she is now demonstrating at a high level.
