Long Itchington Coaches Work With College Girls Football Club

Princethorpe Girls' Football Team welcomed Long Itchington Football Club manager, OP Oscar Rose, and his coaches to their Friday afternoon training sessions in the Trinity Term. 

Princethorpe Girls' Football Team  welcomed local Long Itchington Football Club manager, OP Oscar Rose, and his coaches Stav, Sophie and Lucinda to their Friday afternoon training sessions in the Trinity Term. 

The coaches put the girls through their paces, working on fitness, tackling, holding the ball, passing, shooting and match play. In their final coaching session, they split the girls into four teams and held a mini 'World Cup' to put all those newly honed skills into practise. The event was fiercly contended with plenty of shots on goal. It ended with a nail-bitingly close final, where Mr Lee's team were beaten by a single goal. 

Huge thanks to Oscar and his coaches for their support and encouragement and for helping the girls develop their football skills and encourages players of all ability levels to get involved.
