It’s how we do it – West Ham rituals!

Behind every performance on the pitch lies a world of personal habits, rituals, and traditions that keep players grounded and prepared. For West Ham United, these routines reflect the personality that each player brings to the squad. From the meals that fuel them to the music that sharpens their focus, these rituals reveal how the Hammers prepare to step onto the pitch and deliver their best for the fans.

Pre-match preparation is as much mental as it is physical. Some players rely on classic fuel—pasta, carbs, and protein—to ensure they have the energy for the demands of the game, while others turn to calm reflection or music to find their focus. In the dressing room, the atmosphere blends concentration and friendship, with routines that balance quiet moments of individual focus alongside the collective rhythm set by the team. It’s in these details that you see how each Hammer approaches the challenge of matchday, with every player finding their own way to channel energy into performance.

But football is also about joy, and that joy shines brightest in the celebrations. For some, a goal is a chance to share a personal tribute, like kissing a tattoo that carries the name of their child. For others, it’s about spontaneous fun, like the dances shared by Michael Antonio and Kurt Zouma that brought laughter to teammates and fans alike. And then there’s the collective celebration, when the anthem “I’m Forever Blowing Bubbles” echoes through the stadium, uniting players and supporters in one of football’s most iconic rituals. These moments of connection show how deeply football is tied to emotion, family, and community.

After the whistle, rituals shift from performance to recovery. Some players find peace in spending quiet time with family, while others embrace gaming as a way to unwind and channel adrenaline after the intensity of the match. These personal routines not only recharge the players but also remind us that behind every professional is a person seeking balance between passion and rest.
