With the ever growing success of Women’s football in the country, Bruton School for Girls in Somerset, has recently teamed up with Yeovil Town Football Club to deliver an exciting new initiative.
Coach Ollie Landers, took on the challenge in a 10 week long programme, designed to introduce girls to the basics, this course focuses on developing the girls’ skills and enthusiasm alike. Twenty five Senior School girls excitedly took up the challenge to leave their hockey sticks behind and use their feet, without fear of being pulled up for a foul!
