The Ladies Football Page

Statement 27/10/01

Due to the disappointingly low levels of interest and commitment generated, GPFC have been forced to concede that the development of a Ladies Section is not a viable proposition at this time. Consequently all activities have been suspended but may be resurrected some time in the future.

50% more ladies turned up last night, yes three! Next Thursday 7.30 on the common or that's it.

Well, a disaster last night, only two ladies turned up for training, the others just didn't bother to let me know they weren't coming along. One more try next week, 7.30 Thursday on St Neots Common, could be the last session.

Another lady has made some very positive noises and stated that she could have a few friends that would be interested, watch this space. Matt Plumb says he has 2 more volunteers currently playing with Langford ladies.

Two more ladies have made contact having responded to the ads in the local papers.

The number of interested parties has now risen to seven, one person plays for her University and another plays a decent standard for Langford Ladies, a 3rd is a PE teacher (by her own admission, with no talent for football), the others are just keen.

We are going to try and create a ladies football team to play friendlies in the coming season then apply for league status the season after. Notices are going out and adverts placed in the local press. Anyone interested in either playing or getting involved in the management/administration should contact the club secretary on 01480 475413 (regardless of ability).
