She Can Play have two Mum's squads in the competition this year (you can see what it meant to Lisa from She Can Play Mums to play for the first time last year).
There's Team Stoney (named after former Liverpool, Arsenal and England legend Casey Stoney) and Team Yankee (named after England and former Arsenal star Rachel Yankey).
They play at the same time as their daughters every week.
