Any seasoned football mums here?

My sons have both started doing football in the spring of this year, they love it and I can see it continuing for a while.
Yesterday was the first proper freezing morning we've had and by the time the session had finished I was frozen to the bone and quite uncomfortable.

Are any of you professionals at this and have any tips to keep warm, or just warmer than freezing?
I don't see how I am going to get through the winter at this rate 😩

However cold it says it's gonna be on your weather app, plan for five degrees lower. Plenty of layers, get some fur lined boots, hand warmers, take a hot drink and snacks. I've never been as cold as when I've been standing on a touch line.

Added tip, put something nice and warming in the low oven or slow cooker for when you get home!
