New Kickstart centre starting A new football programme called ‘Kickstart’ is due to launch in March later this month to drive young people away from anti-social behaviour.

Kickstart is a recreational football programme supported by Cambridgeshire Football Association (FA), Cambridgeshire Constabulary and Freedom Leisure.

The sessions are open to both boys and girls aged 14 to 16 years and the training will be provided by a qualified FA coach. Delivered by Norwich City Community Sports Foundation, the football sessions will be a fun, engaging and age-appropriate for the participants.

The programme will provide 26 weeks of football activities and will encompass an FA qualification, coupled with a bespoke football club support package for the development of young leaders in the community.

Participants will have the opportunity to achieve the FA Junior Football Leaders award and will also have the option to obtain a FA Referee qualification and/or a FA Level 1 in Coaching Football.

Once qualified as a referee the individual would be able to earn a bit of extra money by signing up to referee football matches with local grassroots clubs. The FA coaching badge would allow the individual to coach a grassroots football team of their own.

The Kickstart team is made up of FA coach mentors, Cambs FA staff and Fenland police officers. All agencies involved are passionate about making a positive difference to the lives of young people and the communities they live in.

Katie Critchley, Cambs FA Football Development Manager, said: “Building stronger, safer communities is a huge priority and we are delighted to work in partnership with Fenland police and Freedom Leisure. We are in a unique position to be able to use our platform to provide positive diversionary activity for young people. Kickstart injects a £20k investment countywide to encourage young people into sport.

“By putting the local grassroots football club at the heart of the community, we can support participants and give them confidence to use the new skills learned through the coach/referee education package. This is a fantastic opportunity for young people to get involved in something really positive and away from anti-social behaviour.”

Christopher Bryden, Active Communities Manager for Freedom Leisure, said: “As part of our Active Communities plan across Fenland, Freedom Leisure has a commitment to improving the lives of local residents through leisure. This is an ideal opportunity for young people to get active whilst developing new skills that will stand them in good stead for the future.”

Police Inspector Ian Lombardo said: “Even though I’m not the biggest football fan I’m a huge supporter of the Kickstart scheme. The qualifications available will help to boost the participant’s confidence in decision making and leadership along with teaching them the importance of team work. These skills will be a great addition to their CVs ready for when they are applying for further education spaces, apprenticeships or when they are entering the world of full time work. I’m 100 percent behind this scheme so much so in fact that I will be volunteering my own time to help out during the sessions as much as I can. I really hope as many young people as possible take advantage of this opportunity to get fit, make new friends and to do something different on a Friday night.”

The first session will be held on Friday 28th February between 8pm and 9pm at the Neale-Wade Academy in Wimblington Road, March.

All sessions and qualifications are free to partake in and parents/carers/guardians are welcome to stay and watch if they wish. There is no need to book you simply turn up and play.

Anyone wanting further information about the scheme, or would like to register an interest, is asked to email: ashley.dean@cambridgeshirefa.com

Storm Ciara 1 Football 0…

New Playmakers initiative launched UEFA and Disney have teamed up to develop a ground-breaking football programme that uses Disney’s world-renowned storytelling to encourage more young girls to exercise regularly and kickstart a lifelong love of football.

Targeting 5-8 year-old girls not currently playing football, seven UEFA national associations including Scotland will be first to roll out “Playmakers” through schools, clubs and local communities.

More associations are expected to introduce the programme later in the year.

Unlike traditional football programmes, each of Playmaker’s ten initial training sessions follow the narrative of Disney and Pixar’s billion dollar global box office smash hit, Incredibles 2.

Equipped with footballs, bibs and cones, trained coaches encourage participants to play the roles of popular characters, such as Elastigirl, Violet, Mr Incredible and Dash, bringing the film’s action scenes to life through movement, teamwork and their imagination.

As Playmakers rolls out across Europe, new Disney storytelling will be added to the programme. In its early sessions, Playmakers focuses on building girls’ confidence in their movement, encouraging creative thinking and communicating easily with their friends. Later sessions introduce girls to basic football skills, but the programme continues to put the emphasis on making sport fun.

Scottish FA Chief Executive Ian Maxwell said: "The growth of the girls’ and women’s game in Scotland is a key priority for the Scottish FA, so the opportunity to partner with a global brand like Disney to encourage girls to take up football is a tremendous boost.

“Our participation in the Playmakers programme will ensure that number continues to swell and will allow young girls the chance to be involved in football from a young age in a fun environment.

“This is a fantastic initiative set up by UEFA and Disney, empowering young girls through physical activity and encouraging them in a unique and innovative way to play football.

“Having the support of two global brands such as UEFA and Disney, both of whom have goals for girls’ and women’s football that dovetail with our own, should help to inspire a new generation of girls across Scotland to love football.”

Scotland National Team Striker Erin Cuthbert added: “This latest initiative from Disney and UEFA is fantastic and offers a new way for children to begin playing football. I absolutely love Disney, even at the age of 21, and when I was younger this is definitely something I would loved to have been part of.

“I can see a huge difference now in terms of the number of young girls taking part in football from when I was growing up, and playing in a boys team. Using Disney will not only make football even more enjoyable for them at a young age but will also hopefully increase participation levels even more.

“I can’t wait to see the positive effect that this programme will have across Scotland.” (www.scottishfa.co.uk)

Chelsea keep up the pressure Chelsea 2 Birmingham City 0 Chelsea maintained their pursuit of Barclays FA WSL leaders Manchester City with a 2-0 home win over Birmingham City, ahead of the top two clash in Manchester later in the month.

A determined display by the visitors ensured there was no repeat of the six-goal margin in the reverse fixture but Chelsea's dominance on the night was rarely threatened.

Birmingham did manage the first shot on goal by Rachel Williams - who was making her 100th FA WSL appearance against her former club - in the fifth minute and it took Chelsea twenty minutes to fashion a shot themselves, Erin Cuthbert firing in a 15-yard effort beaten away by keeper Hannah Hampton. Generally, however, Birmingham defended very efficiently from crosses and set pieces whilst looking for the occasional counter attack.

Abbi Grant instigated Birmingham's best move of the half on 37 minutes, crossing for Lucy Staniforth to fire just over with a fine first time shot on the run. Chelsea finally broke the deadlock right on 45 minutes when Jonna Andersson's cross from the left found Guro Reiten who made space to strike low past Hampton.

Drew Spence nearly added a second on 51 minutes when her shot from a half cleared corner drew a fine save from Hampton low to her left.

It was Beth England who doubled the advantage with her 13th of the season, bursting through the middle to latch onto a Cuthbert through ball and send a right foot finish beyond Hampton on 58 minutes.

Little was seen of Birmingham as an attacking threat in the second half but they continued to defend in depth, with skipper Kerys Harrop often getting in crucial blocks and interceptions. Substitute Ramona Bachmann brought some extra invention to the home attack and she set up England for a superb turn and shot which struck the inside of the post before flying across goal on 75 minutes.

Chelsea continued to press, with Hannah Blundell getting in good positions on two occasions without finding the target. Birmingham earned their first corner of the match in second half stoppage time but had never looked like reducing the deficit.

However, in the light of the result in their first meeting and Chelsea's eight-goal haul in their last home game, this result reflected a disciplined and hard working effort.

Birmingham are deep in a relegation fight but remain third bottom with Bristol City losing, whilst Chelsea remain a point behind leaders Manchester City but with a game in hand ahead of the summit meeting on 23rd February.

Everyone is buzzing - Eva Ipswich Town are having an excellent season to date and on Sunday, they get the chance to take on Manchester City in the Fifth Round of the Women’s FA Cup at the Academy Stadium.

The FAWNL Division One South East table toppers were paired against the Cup holders after an impressive run in the competition, which has seen them eliminate three teams from a higher level in Chichester City, Portsmouth and Huddersfield Town en route to the last sixteen.

Eva Hubbard has been a regular member of the Ipswich side throughout their impressive campaign and the defender told Women’s Soccer Scene that the chance to take on their illustrious opponents will be the icing on the cake.

“We are all really excited for Sunday’s game,” she said. “It’s going to be an amazing experience and we are all really looking forward to it. The mood is really positive and everyone is buzzing.

“At the start of the season our main goal was to get promoted, so to think we have got through six rounds of the FA cup to get where we are and are still on track for promotion is a great thing for the club.

“The league is our priority but having a good cup run is really good for the club and attracting new supporters, especially when playing against big names such as Manchester City.”

For one Ipswich player, the tie will have extra significance. Blue Wilson will be up against her former club, having joined the Suffolk side last summer. “Blue, like everyone else is buzzing,” added Eva. “She wanted us to get City so she is really excited about it.”

Eva also insisted that their main preparations for the tie would be the same as any other. “We tend to do lots of preparation for most of our game’s so this will be no different, we will watch clips of City and try to work out what the best way to beat them.

“It will be different to our other away games with an overnight stay the night before but this is a good chance for us all to catch up and relax before the big game the next day.

“City will obviously have lots of depth in their squad and will have the ability to potentially play lots of different players and a lot of their players have international caps and are experienced in the WSL so it will be a real challenge coming up against the likes of Steph Houghton and Ellen White. This means every single one of us will be tested, but it’s a great experience for us all as the WSL is where we all want to be in a few years time.

“The majority of our team are also part of the Under-21 side where we play development teams of WSL clubs, and sometimes first team players are used against us, but to play a completely senior WSL side will be a new experience for all of us and I’m sure a highlight in all of our football careers so far!

“The FA Cup is an amazing competition for teams like us that don’t usually play against the bigger sides, so for us, it’s a great experience to add to our excellent league form. We are hoping to get as far as possible in the Cup because it adds a new side to the squad and can get lots of attraction and excitement from supporters.

“The game on Sunday is an exciting break from the league as we have put lots of time into our preparation - but the league still remains our priority and we will work just as hard when we go back to the league the following week!

City set for Ashton Gate date Bristol City have announced that their Women’s FA Cup Fifth Round tie against Everton will be played at Ashton Gate Stadium.

The tie has been pushed back to Monday night and will kick off at 7.30pm.

The meeting between the two WSL sides is one of two Fifth Round ties which will be played on Monday, with Coventry Utd hosting Tottenham Hotspur the same night.

We talk to…..

Louise Naylor (Milton Keynes Dons)

Last Sunday, Milton Keynes Dons went through to the semi finals of the FAWNL League Cup with a 2-0 victory against Chesham Utd. We talked to MK Dons defender Louise Naylor, who was pleased with the team’s recent upsurge in form, including the win at Chesham, and looked ahead to meeting Stoke City in the semi finals this week:

LN: Chesham are in our county, so we regularly get drawn against them in the County Cup. We know they are always a tough team to play and can cause a threat. Despite the result against them seven days earlier, that was at the back of our mind and we were solely focused on getting to the semi final in the League Cup. LN: Obviously the goals in quick succession were important but I felt we started to cause more of a threat in the second half, so was confident we would get the goals and the win regardless.

LN: Last year was us being able to enjoy our football without the pressures of survival in our first year in the third tier. We got to express our style of play more and take more risks in the cup ties. This year was all about achieving the same if not better. We know the league is tough, so having good cup runs allow you to refocus to spur us on into the league.

LN: I can think of a few factors that may have played a part. The team spirit is definitely one factor but also we have a young squad and it sometimes takes time to find that consistency in performances.

Before the Christmas break, we had a chance to reflect as players and management on our targets for the season, I think this has changed our approach slightly going into each game and we hope it continues.

LN: We are excited for the draw and especially being at home at the stadium. We don't know too much about Stoke City other than they have been doing well in the Northern Premier, but we are looking forward to the game.

LN: I think we were inconsistent in many areas of our game in the first half of the season, despite getting some early good results. Our performances of late have been much improved and we now know where our strengths are and how to apply them to the game more often. We are learning from every game but I feel we are heading in the right direction.

LN: Certainly, I have been here six seasons now and the support we get compared to when I joined is fantastic. We know we still have areas to improve on to be competing higher but this league is very competitive. I think the quality of players coming through from our RTC and the fact we do share our home ground with the men's team also speaks volumes in the club’s future ambitions.

Our thanks to Louise!

The Women’s FA Cup Road to the Final MANCHESTER CITY v IPSWICH TOWN Ipswich Town produced one of the results of the round in winning 4-1 away to Huddersfield Town, to claim their third successive scalp from the level above. Maddie Higgs hit a hat-trick and Natasha Thomas added the other to ensure that Ipswich are the last remaining team from Tier 4 in the competition. They have landed a plum draw in the last sixteen, away to Cup holders Manchester City who reached this stage with a 3-2 victory over Manchester United in the previous round, given to them by an Ellen White brace and Jill Scott.

Formerly known as Manchester City Ladies FC, the club was founded in 1988

by City in the Community. In the 30 years since then, their affiliation with the men’s team has taken various forms, culminating in the statement of a formal partnership with Manchester City in August 2012. The Club was granted entry to the FA Women’s Super League in April 2013 and subsequently re-launched as Manchester City Women’s Football Club in January 2014. In 2016, Manchester City opened their girls’ academy having received tier 1 status from the FA for a Regional Talent Club and now provides eighty young players from U10 level upwards elite training to maximise their potential.

The Club mirrors and benefits from its association with its male equivalent and is structured in all aspects of its operations to take advantage of the resources of the wider organisation – from community programmes, to youth development, scouting, coaching, sports science, digital coverage and first team football operations.

In their inaugural season, Manchester City made history when they clinched their first ever trophy, the FA WSL Continental Cup. In the 2015 campaign, the Club finished second place in the FA WSL and with it secured their place in the UEFA Women’s Champions League, which they have competed in for the last three seasons.

In 2016, the Club celebrated their most successful season to date being crowned the FA WSL Champions for the first time in their history, lifting the FA WSL Continental Tyres Cup for a second time and becoming Women’s FA Cup winners in another historic first. And in 2018-19, they scooped a domestic double with the Women’s FA Cup and FA WSL Continental Tyres Cup. The team, which includes multiple England internationals, play their home games in the 7,000 capacity Academy Stadium at City Football Academy, the facility which they share alongside the men’s and academy teams.

Following the recent departure of Nick Cushing to take up a job in the USA, Alan Mahon has taken over the job as Interim Manager. Steph Houghton has been club captain ever since she joined the club on its entry into the FA WSL and she has also made the most appearances for the club, 171 in all competitions.

This season's leading scorer is German international Pauline Bremer, who has 19 goals to her name in all competitions so far.

COVENTRY UNITED v TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR Coventry United brought an end to the excellent Cup run of Southampton FC by beating them 4-1 at the St Marys Stadium. Fiona Worts scored a hat-trick and Shannon O'Brien was also on target as the Championship side proved to be too strong on the day in front of a crowd in excess of 4,500. Coventry now have a home tie of their own, to be played on Monday evening, against FA WSL side Tottenham Hotspur who went through with a 5-0 victory over Barnsley, Rianna Dean netting twice along with Siri Worm, Gemma Davison and Elisha Sulola.

In 1985, the club was founded as Broxbourne Ladies by Sue Sharples and Kay Lovelock, following the folding of East Herts College. In the 1991–92 season, permission was obtained to change the name to Tottenham Hotspur. The reserve team started in 1992–93. In the 1996–97 season, the club's teams started playing in the National Division.

In the 2015–16 season, the club completed a historic double as they won the Ryman's Women's Cup and the FA Women's Premier League Cup. In the same season they finished runners-up in the Capital Cup, nearly completing a cup treble. The following season was the team's most successful to date, claiming the quadruple including winning promotion to the WSL 2. This included lifting the FAWPL Southern Division title and beating Blackburn Rovers in the Championship Play-off Final at The Valley.

At the start of the 2017–18 campaign, the club made high profile signings such as former England Under-20 midfielder Coral-Jade Haines and Wales international forward Sarah Wiltshire. The season saw the team claim their first ever victory over a top flight side, beating Bristol City in their FA Women's League Cup tie. The club finished their first season in a professional league in seventh place out of ten sides. In March 2018 it was confirmed that the club would apply to remain in the newly re-branded Women's Championship and would compete in the upcoming season.

There were several moves in made the lead up to their first season in the newly reformed FA Women's Championship, this included the return of Welsh international Megan Wynne who played on loan for the club in 2015 as well as the departure of long time players Katie O’Leary and Shannon Moloney who played for the side for five and seven years respectively. The club announced on 26 April 2019, that the team would be renamed to Tottenham Hotspur Women starting with the next season as well as the appointment of Heather Cowan as Head of Women's Football. After a 1-1 draw with Aston Villa on 1 May 2019, Spurs secured a promotion spot to the FA Women's Super League for the first time in their history.

The Tottenham team is under the guidance of Head Coaches Karen Hills and Juan Amoros, with Sarah Budd as Coach and Jenna Schillaci is captain. An important figure at the club is June Clarke, who is now Chairman.

Essex through to Final Essex Ladies qualified for the final of the Southern Counties Cup for the first time as Kim Coster’s side defeated Middlesex 3-2 to top the North Group with three wins out of three. Victories over the Royal Air Force, the Army and, now, Middlesex completed the clean sweep and paved Essex’s path into the final, which will be played at home against the South Group winners, who are likely to be Kent or Sussex.

This win over competition holders Middlesex was especially pleasing as goals from Zoe Rushen, debutant Robyn Moody and a late Kelly Wealthall penalty earned the win despite Middlesex twice equalising at Aveley FC’s Parkside home.

The first chance of night fell to the visitors. A quick break saw Kasha Petit find Lavana Neufville, who chipped just wide of the far post. Essex then came close when Rushen first dragged a shot just wide before crashing an effort against the bar from 20 yards. Essex’s Poppy Binding made a good run and found the gloves of Middlesex goalkeeper Kinga Golebiowski with her shot from range. But the deadlock was broken three minutes before the break as Moody’s shot across goal was pushed out by Golebiowski and Rushen was on-hand to tap home.

Rushen then fired just wide from the edge of the area shortly after the re-start but, with 58 minutes played, Middlesex found their first leveller. Ashley Cheatley fired in a low, deflected finish. With Essex looking to edge back ahead, the ball flashed across the face of the Middlesex goal, but Gemma Abela couldn’t quite connect at the far post.

Essex were back in front with 72 minutes played. A mistake from Golebiowski was punished by Moody, who fired an emphatic finish inside the right-hand post. The home side needed just a draw and a point to secure final qualification, but a Middlesex leveller a minute from time would’ve brought some nerves. Neufville smashed a finish in off the underside of the bar after Petit and Cheatley had both seen shots blocked. However, the top spot was put beyond doubt as Essex won the game two minutes into added time, Wealthall firing home an excellent penalty to seal the 3-2 success following a foul by Golebiowski.

FAW Women’s Cup The quarter finals of the FAW Women’s Cup produced something of a rarity on the weekend - a match!

One of the four scheduled ties did actually manage to go ahead on Sunday and it saw Orchard Welsh Premier Women’s League leaders book their place in the semi finals . with a 4-0 victory over The Swans opened the scoring after twenty minutes, when Katy Hosford swept home a cross from Emma Beynon. Hosford then netted her second with a firm header just before the half hour and she completed her hat-trick on the stroke of half time.

After the break, Swansea continued to press in testing conditions but Bethel, to their credit, defended in determined fashion, the home side only adding one more goal when substitute Lani Hogben scored with ten minutes remaining.

The other three ties were all victims of Storm Ciara, along with all scheduled matches in the Orchard Welsh Premier Women’s League and Welsh Women’s League.

It is to be hoped that the other quarter final ties will be played this Sunday, including the meeting between Cardiff City Women and Cup holders Cardiff Met Women.

In the other games, Connah’s Quay Nomads - now the last remaining team from outside the top flight - play host to Port Talbot Town, whilst Llandudno Ladies are at home to Abergavenny Women.

Welsh Premier Women’s League For the first time ever, BBC Radio Wales/ Radio Cymru are attending an Orchard WPWL fixture to provide live in-game updates of a league game.

Cardiff City Women v Cardiff Met Women will be covered in the weekly Radio Wales Sport and Chwaraeon Radio Cymru shows on Saturday 11th April. It looks set to be an exciting match, being the last round for 2019-20, with the two teams currently vying for second spot – though by April there is a chance one, or both teams, can catch present league leaders Swansea so a UEFA Women’s Champions League spot may also be at stake – it could be a winner takes all game.
