#21 Grassroots stories with... Geoff Ocran

<p>Another week, another grassroots legend. This time, Rob and Anees are joined by Clapton CFC Manager, Geoff Ocran, to bring episode 21 of #JustTalk.</p> <p>From being a fan favourite as a player, to managing the team he once captained... Geoff is the man at the helm of a club with a phenomal grassroots story of their own. Just how does Geoff deal with the weight of managing a team with 100s of Clapton CFC fans in attendance every home game, and 1000s following the team worldwide?</p> <p>It seems like Geoff doesn't just "deal with it" but he thrives as he talks of the important club values and a changing culture in grassrotos football that puts other priorities ahead of the game itself. It's amazing to hear how the community work of Clapton CFC inspires Geoff in his role has manager, something he has taken to his league and cup winning double-winning manager's role with church-league side, ANM FC, to new heights too.</p> <p><strong>Social Media <br> </strong>Us: @csmlondonfc (Twitter and Instagram)<br> Rob: @robcrane93 (Twitter), @robert_crane93 (Instagram)<br> Anees: @mullahcorner (Twitter and Instagram)<br> Geoff: @mr_ocran (Twitter and Instagram)</p> <p>#CSM #JustTalk</p>

#20 Grassroots stories with... Alam Zaman

<p>Rob and... wait what? No Anees this week. Rob is on his own as he returns from a busy period at work to serve up episode 20 of #JustTalk. This time we invite Alam Zaman, professional sports photographer on to the show to talk to him about his work in grassroots football.</p> <p>Just what inspired Alam to get involved in sports photography? From being a participant in sport growing up, he realised as he grew older that there were no pictures of him playing sport. He had an idea to do it for others and followed a passion from 2007 to get shots of people in action in grassroots football.</p> <p>It's amazing to hear Alam speaking about giving a service that makes people playing football feel great when they see pictures of themselves playing. What a unique perspective on grassroots football and a conversation about the power of the photograph in the game we love to play.</p> <p><strong>Social Media<br> </strong>Us: @csmlondonfc (Twitter and Instagram)<br> Rob: @robcrane93 (Twitter), @robert_crane93 (Instagram)<br> Anees: @mullahcorner (Twitter and Instagram)<br> Alam: @360fisheye (Twitter), @azimages7345 (Instagram)</p> <p>#CSM #JustTalk</p> <p><br></p>

#19 Grassroots stories with... April McGrath

<p>It's episode 3 of the #JustTalk season and we invite April McGrath to give her Grassroots story to Rob and Anees. She first came on board the City East management team to help with the admin side of things but now she is the first aider, kit washer, and more recently joined the Hackney and Leyton Football League management committee.</p> <p>Her story is one of a fired up City East side on their way to success but a side the values the love of the game more than the win itself. As one of the few female volunteers visible on a Sunday morning at Hackney Marshes, April talks of the respect she has for many clubs and her enjoyment of the inclusive atmosphere she revels in.</p> <p>Despite the disappointment of not completing the last 2 seasons due to covid, City East look a sure bet to finish as league champions and be promoted to the Premier Division. However, the story of April and City East is all about enjoyment. Taking a love for the game onto a pitch you can leave all other troubles behind.</p> <p><strong>Social Media </strong>Us:<br> @csmlondonfc (Twitter and Instagram) -<br> Rob: @robcrane93 (Twitter), @robert_crane93 (Instagram) -<br> Anees: @mullahcorner (Twitter and Instagram) -<br> April: @cefcsecretary (Twitter), @aprilmcgrath1989 (Instagram) -</p> <p>#CSM #JustTalk</p>
