Coaches
Volunteers, all of them. Parents, a grandad, a council officer, a nurse. All of them checked, all of them trained, none of them paid.
We only show adults on this page. Names and photos of girls never appear on this site.
Club secretary · Wildcats lead coach
Seren started Cascade Girls in 2017 with six girls and a bag of borrowed balls, because her daughter wanted to play and the nearest girls' team was two buses away.
She works for the council, and she runs Thursdays with three helpers. She holds the club's coaching badge and safeguarding certificates (placeholder wording; a real club lists its own).
Under 12s coach · Coach course lead
Angharad grew up on Grand Avenue and came to football at sixteen. She runs the under 12s on Mondays and looks after everyone who is learning to coach at the club.
She will tell you that the first aim of a session is that every girl wants to come back next week, and that everything else comes second.

Every coach and helper holds an enhanced DBS check and a safeguarding certificate. Welfare officer Marian Ellis is on 07700 900 174. On this demonstration site the names, the numbers and the DBS wording are placeholders.
Trainers and a coat are fine for the first session. A coach meets you at the pavilion gate, and you can stay and watch for as long as you like. The first three sessions are free.
