Footsteps on the Field || a woso story

"I've worked so hard to get here, but now I just feel like I'm letting everyone down."

In a small and normal town, where dreams are non existent, and go unnoticed, young Florence discovered her passion and love for football as a toddler- and since then spends her days and countless hours shooting, dribbling, and playing football with the boys in her town- or alone.

Neglected and lost in her own home, she finds strength and solace with a ball at her feet, each kick, a footstep towards her freedom, her escape.

In an incredible opportunity, Florence's talents catch the eyes of arsenal scouts, where she leaves her old life behind, and her new one blossoms.

Opportunity after opportunity, praise after praise, invited to join the England women's team, expectations after expectations... it's gruelling.

The pressure is hard to balance- can she cope?

"It's the beauty of the game"
