YEAR 8&9 U14 Girls

I'm Chris, manager of the Year 8 and 9 girls' team here at Lilliput FC! Football's been my passion since I could kick a ball and I played centre-half competitively at university and in South London (sadly, with zero England caps to my name!). I’ve also coached teams at university and my sons' under 8 teams previously.

 

These days, you'll find us cheering on both Chelsea Women and Men, and of course, enthusiastically supporting our Lilliput girls!

 

My daughter, Effie, started playing for the team two years ago, and I joined as coach shortly after. We are also supported by Gemma, who brings a wealth of knowledge about conditioning and fitness. We're committed to helping these girls stay match-ready and avoid injuries, which is core to how we approach training and games.

 

We train on Thursday evenings and plan matches for Saturday mornings. We're all about teaching these girls to play the game the right way: with smart positioning, crisp passing, constant movement, and above all, strong teamwork.

 

We're always looking for enthusiastic new players to join our team. Whether your daughter is just starting out or has a few seasons under her belt, we'd love to welcome her to a taster training session.
