The Problem & Solution
This page highlights the problem of parents unknowingly impacting their children's love of football, outlines the message and strategy for change, and details how clubs and coaches can support LetUsPlay in nurturing the parent-child relationship to ensure more kids enjoy playing football without pressure and fear.
We are tackling an issue that impacts the entire football community
70% of kids drop out of competitive football by the of 13 due to the pressure of playing. We give the issue visibility & reinforce positive parent-child interactions on match day.
What is the #LetUsPlayFootball Mantra?
To facilitate positive change, certain behaviour and topics of conversation need to be avoided.
We have teamed up with Sue Parris, Emotional Welfare Specialist & Dr Scott Whitfield, Sport and Exercise Psychologist, both working in professional football. They will be offering insights to football-parents, enabling them to support their young child with confidence. By joining the WhatsApp community you will be given free access to game-changing & thought provoking content.
SELF-AWARENESS
#LetUsPlay Mesh Banners
The printed mesh banners we use are an incredibly effective way to raise awareness and reinforce the LetUsPlay message on match days. They showcase the club's commitment to child welfare and the importance of parent-child communication.
Stickers for Goalposts
The primary objective is to display the #LetUsPlayFootball message on goal posts across all Junior league matches. Given the heightened emotions on match day, the prominent placement of these stickers will suppress impulsive behavior, which is the most significant and challenging issue to address.
We provide high-quality, durable, and weather-resistant acrylic stickers that are easy to apply - simply request them and we'll send them your way at no cost.
Transfers for Kit
We can also supply and apply #LetUsPlay transfers onto club kit - They are available in Black or White in two sizes to ensure we can find a space on all kits.
It’s a powerful way of reinforcing the message, and acts as a coat of armour for kids on match day.

“LetUsPlay does not aim to vilify vocal parents, including myself. Rather, the mistakes made are unintentional, stemming from a lack of understanding and the excitement of match day, not from a lack of empathy, love, or concern for our kids.”
