Mother and daughter duo Hazzana Parnell and Remaya Osbourne are poised to make history this weekend as they prepare to line up on the same team for Hednesford Town, marking a rare and remarkable moment in women’s football.

 

At 38, forward Parnell is no stranger to competitive football, but stepping onto the pitch alongside her 16-year-old daughter is something she describes as one of the proudest moments of her career. The pair have already developed a striking on-field chemistry, each having both scored and assisted for the other in previous matches this season.

 

Their upcoming FA Cup appearance together makes the occasion even more special, adding their names to a very short list of mother-daughter combinations to feature in the competition.

 

“It’s a surreal feeling,” Hazzana said ahead of the match. “To share the pitch with my daughter in a competition like this is something I’ll never forget.”

 

Remaya, who has emerged as one of Hednesford’s most exciting young talents, has credited her mum for inspiring her love of the game. Coaches at the club have praised the pair not only for their technical ability but also for the positive influence they bring to the squad.

 

The historic fixture is expected to draw significant interest from fans and grassroots football organisations who see the pair as trailblazers in the rapidly growing women’s game.

 

Hednesford Town will hope the family connection brings them an extra edge as they look to progress further in the competition — and perhaps create even more history along the way.
