Following Issy Martin’s appointment as the new Head Coach, Â鶹ֱ²¥ football is in the process of delivering a vision that will drive the Women’s football programme forward.
The evening consisted of speeches from Issy, alongside Executive Director of Sport, John Steele, and Â鶹ֱ²¥ University’s Director of Football, Richard Allen. Attendees discussed several pre-set questions in groups on how the strategy could look before sharing their takeaway thoughts.
“When you have so much potential with a programme it’s really important to speak to as many people it may affect as possible,” said Issy.
“We knew it was equally vital to engage with individuals away from Â鶹ֱ²¥ as their input naturally comes from another perspective. It’s exciting to think we’re now that close to developing a strategy that will undoubtedly help us progress.”
Following the evening, Richard Allen added:
“We’ve shown our commitment to the Women’s game with Issy’s appointment and this is the point now where we can implement a strategy together, to provide a direction of travel for the Women’s programme.”
