Staff Biography

After studying at university I began my footballing career as the girls football development officer working for the county FA and FITC. I have been with FITC since January 2001 and have diversified from girl’s football to having responsibility for a wide range of activities. My main roles are concerned with gaining funds to increase opportunities in Norfolk for all children including disabled and deprived children. I am also director of the Girls Centre of Excellence and oversee the running of the girls PDCs and soccer centres. These programmes are highly important to the development of FITC and local football in general. I look forward to working with many new people to continue the growth and success of Football in the Community. « Back to profiles
