Introduction
Today was my first day shooting for this personal project that involves Grass roots level football that takes place in London - Hackney Marshes.
The Main purpose of this project is to document what happens on and off the pitch and how Human interactions and emotions take place within the Grass roots community.
My aim is to highlight and show how being involved in the world of football can represent some concepts and disciplines in the real world and how it can help with a person’s day to day roles they may have outside of football.
Tottenham Phoenix vs Niva FC
After introducing myself to some of the League organisers at Hackney Marshes, they recommended i shoot this game that involved two teams from the Premier league of the Hackney and Leyton football league.
Here Are some of the images taken of the game
Referee’s meeting
After all the games where played, all of the referees involved in the Hackney and Leyton football league had a meeting to discuss a few items related to past concerns, improvements and new news/rules that will be applied for the up and coming season.
One item they discussed was on how the league can become more interactive with the social digital world and part of my objective for this project is to help promote and make Grass roots football more social aware in the digital space we now live in.
