My 6 year old boy won Player of the Match this weekend.
I'm so proud of him and its an absolute pleasure to see his confidence shine.
But I'd never have said this on X cos i'd end up with people saying its "woke" to call it Player of the Match and I couldn't be bothered with the hassle.

Always baffles me when crossing paths with runners who don't acknowledge you.
Same hobby, same time, same town, dealing with the same weather/circumstances.
