Happy Mother’s Day to all the incredible football mothers out there from myself, John Fadel, Sam Sa, and the entire Excel Sports team. ❤️
Today, we acknowledge the women who often go unnoticed behind the scenes… the mothers who sacrifice their time, energy, sleep, emotions, and daily lives to make sure their daughters have every possible opportunity to chase their dreams.
The mothers driving to trainings before and after work.
The mothers washing muddy gear late at night.
The mothers paying registrations, supporting recovery, organising schedules, preparing meals, lifting confidence after setbacks, and standing proudly in silence while their daughters grow through the toughest moments of their pathways journey.
We see you.
At Excel Sports, we understand that behind every young lady chasing the NRLW dream is often a mother making enormous sacrifices to ensure her daughter has the tools of the trade, the preparation, the guidance, and the belief needed to keep progressing.
To the mothers who don’t always get acknowledged publicly… today is for you.
We sincerely wish you all a Happy Mother’s Day from our hearts.
Personally, I also want to wish a very special Happy Mother’s Day to my beautiful wife Chantal, my mother, and my mother-in-law. Thank you for the love, support, strength, and sacrifices you continue to make for our family every single day.
And lastly, a very special Happy Mother’s Day to my daughter-in-law Abby, who God willing will bless us with our first granddaughter this August. We are truly excited and grateful for this next chapter of our family journey. ❤️
Happy Mother’s Day to all the amazing mothers from Excel Sports.
