My son loves football. He recently joined a youth club, plays regularly, watches famous players all day long and tried to copy their style... you get the picture. His most valued possessions are his football shoes and kit Me on the other hand, I know literally nothing about football, except the obvious rules of the game. DH isn't into sports either.
But I (we) would love to be able to "speak football" with my son, and actually understand him when he describes a great move or something he's done that he's proud of. So my question is to those of you who are football mums, where do i start? Should I just learn the more intricate rules of the game? And how do I get involved to show him my support? Attend all the matches, be there with water and snacks? I know the answer might seem obvious but I've never been in the world of sports, so please just point me in the right direction
