The LCFC Women duo recently visited to spend time with the children, taking part in the school’s football after-school club.

The pair joined students on the pitch, getting involved in a series of football drills and activities, while taking the opportunity to chat with the aspiring young players about their experiences in the game.

From discussing their own journeys in football to sharing advice and answering questions, Goodwin and McLoughlin helped create an engaging afternoon designed to inspire the next generation and encourage more girls to discover the opportunities available through football.

The visit formed part of Premier League Primary Stars, which uses the power of football to support children’s development, helping them build confidence, develop new skills and enjoy being active.

Thomas Twigg, Premier League Primary Stars Coordinator at Leicester City in the Community, commented: "It was fantastic to welcome Missy and Liv to Forest Lodge Academy and see the impact their visit had on the girls.

"Having the opportunity to meet professional footballers, take part in activities with them and hear about their journeys can be hugely inspiring for young people.

"Visits like this are a great way to show girls that there is a place for everyone in football, whatever their starting point. We hope the experience encourages them to keep playing, develop their confidence and continue enjoying the game."

Delivered by Leicester City in the Community and funded by the Premier League Foundation, Premier League Primary Stars uses the appeal of football to engage primary school children, supporting their physical development, confidence and learning both on and off the pitch.

Through opportunities like this, Leicester City in the Community continues to use the power of the badge to create positive experiences, inspire young people and help ensure there is always a place for everyone in the game.
