Knowle Girls U8 Eagles started their football journey this season as a brand new team. They're already a big part of the Knowle family, representing our club brilliantly on the pitch and off. But before Christmas they experienced another milestone thanks to a local business who are also all about family; Mollycoddles Doggy Day Care stepped in to sponsor their home kit! The players were very excited to have a sponsors name on the shirts, just like the professionals do!
Mollycoddles provide a safe, loving, and stimulating environment for your furry companions. We asked owner Fionuala Taylor to share what her business offers and she told us; "Just like these young athletes need a dedicated space to train and develop their skills, our day care offers a dynamic environment where dogs can:
Develop their physical abilities: Run, play, and socialise with other dogs, much like a team training session!
Build confidence and social skills: Interact with other dogs in a controlled and supervised setting, exactly like team sports.
Enjoy the outdoors: Experience the joy of playing outdoors, just as these young Eagles do on the pitch.
We understand that every dog is unique, and we strive to create a personalised experience for each of our guests"
You can find out lots more about Mollycoddles, or book your dog's fun day at the centre by visiting the website at www.mollycoddlesdoggydaycare.com. Knowle fans should also definitely follow them on social media for updates, special offers, and adorable dog photos!

Knowle FC's Commercial Officer, Sam Smith, said "Mollycoddles are exactly the sort of local business we love to get involved with our teams. The whole family are part of the club once a player joins up with one of our teams; included the four-legged members! We know Mollycoddles are fervent about the love and care they provide for all the dogs at their centre, just as we are with all our players at our club."
Fionuala added "Mollycoddles Doggy Day Care is thrilled to be sponsoring The Eagles! We're passionate about supporting our local community and fostering a love for a healthy lifestyle and physical activity in young people as well as in dogs. We believe in the importance of giving back to the community and supporting local youth sports programs." She went on to explain how sponsoring the Eagles allows Mollycoddles to do three things:
"Promote healthy lifestyles: We encourage physical activity and a love for sports.
Support female athletes: We empower young women to participate in sports and build confidence.
Build community spirit: We foster a sense of community by supporting local organisations like Knowle Football Club.
We're excited to cheer on The Eagles this season and be a part of their journey!"
Mollycoddles have already delivered on that promise and went along to support the Eagles at their game last weekend. The team enjoyed meeting them...and of course Molly herself! Manager Paul told us "The Eagles put in their best performance yet, with quality passing moves and playing high tempo football with their heads up. Having Fin and Andy from Mollycoddles there must have inspired the girls! A huge thank you to them for their sponsorship; the kit looks great!"
Do look out for the Mollycoddles team around the games in the coming weeks, and stop by to say hello and talk to them about any dog daycare needs your family may have.
