Hello and welcome back to the Football for Kids podcast.

I hope that you've had a wonderful summer and that if you're

playing for a football team that your season has got off to a happy start. Remember, the most

important thing about playing football is enjoying it. A quick message before we get into the episode. Before the summer, I had some school

visits booked in to do some live podcasts, but I needed to reschedule them because I injured my foot.

Don't worry though. I didn't injure my foot by dropping Jack Grealish's wallet on it. It was something much more

boring than that. Anyway, I'm trying to re-book those school visits in. If your school hasn't had a

response from me or a new date, it's because their email has disappeared from my Football

for Kids' email address inbox.

Maybe I said the wrong Harry Potter spell.

If your school still wants a visit and they've not received an email from me over the last

couple of weeks, then please ask them to get back in touch.

And I will do my best to find a new date so I can come to your school
