Late goal pegs back England
 Women's Football News 3 Jul 2009
 
A late equalising goal ensured that England under-23 were held to a 1-1 draw by Germany in the first of their trio of summer friendlies at Bisham Abbey.
 
Fern Whelan looked to have given England a narrow victory over the might of Germany when she headed them in front on the quarter hour, but the visitors levelled the scores with just eight minutes remaining through substitute Marie Pollmann.
 
The game was played in sweltering conditions with the temperature reaching somewhere around 30 degrees. Despite the heat, England started the match at a high tempo and dominated early on. Fern Whelan's headed goal from a corner after a quarter of an hour gave them a deserved lead.
 
England held the lead until half time with relative ease as the Germans struggled to test their goal with any attempts of note. Indeed Carly Telford in goal barely had a save to make, with an easy catch from a long distance shot the closest Germany came.
 
The tempo dropped in the second half, with the heat taking its toll on the players. The play remained even for the majority of the second half, with England still looking comfortable.
 
A couple of half chances fell the way of the home side but they were not taken and Germany capitalised on a late opportunity to level. Going into the final 15 minutes, Germany began to pile on the pressure which finally resulted in Pollmann notching the equaliser late on. 
 
England under-23: Carly Telford, Dunia Susi, Claire Rafferty (sub Ellie Gilliatt 45mins), Kim Dixson, Fern Whelan, Sophie Bradley, Gemma Davison (sub Ellen White 62mins), Lizzie Edwards (sub Becky Hall 74mins), Natasha Dowie, Rachel Williams (sub Charlotte Young 67mins), Dannii Bird. Subs not used: Sophie Perry, Marie Hourihan, Mel Sutcliffe.

Arsenal complete double signing
 Women's Football News 2 Jul 2009
 
Arsenal are delighted to announce the arrival of two new players to further strengthen their squad.
 
Joining the Gunners, who won the domestic 'treble' last season, will be England International Corinne Yorston (pictured) as well as 18-year-old Scottish defender Jennifer Beattie.
 
For the past three seasons, Yorston has captained Bristol Academy as well as making a significant impact with the England squad, being selected as one of the England players to receive a Central Contract with the Football Association. She is a versatile left footed player who can play in defence or midfield, normally in the left back position.
 
Jennifer Beattie, who has been one of Scotland's best prospects in recent years, joins from Celtic who were one of the major challengers at the top of the Scottish Women's Premier League last season. After demonstrating her skill and attacking instincts while at Celtic, Jennifer has also proved to be an influential player for her country where she is a regular member of the squad. In just ten appearances for Scotland, Beattie has scored twice from her defensive position.
 
Newly appointed Arsenal manager, Tony Gervaise, told www.arsenal.com: "We are extremely pleased to find both Corrine and Jennifer and have them join Arsenal Ladies. Both players will be coming to us with a vast amount of experience developed at both Club and international level and will make a valuable impact within our current squad.
 
"To continue the success of the Arsenal Ladies over the past 22 years we must ensure we also develop our squad and our players to the highest level possible."

Proud Gills swoop for Natalie
 Women's Football News 2 Jul 2009
 
Gillingham are proud to unveil local girl Natalie Crinean as their first summer signing, which is undoubtly the biggest in the club's history.
 
Natalie, who has been involved in the England youth set up, spent last season in the Southern Division of the Premier League as an established first team player with Charlton Athletic and scored nine goals for the Addicks. She has also previously played for West Ham United before joining Charlton last season.
 
"I played at the Gills for a couple of seasons when I was young, but at that time they was not too serious about girls football so I had to move on," explained Natalie. "However after contacting the club, I have been so impressed with what they have achieved in less than a year. They have got a good set up with good coaches and are very ambitious - to me it is not a step down, it's a challenge to work with everyone to get up to the Premier League, where I feel they should be."
 
Director Of Football Martin Andrews summed up the feeling within the management team: "This is why we do it, we put in so many hours a week voluntarily and have changed the club from top to bottom within a year so to sign a player of the quality of Natalie is fantastic, it's given everyone a lift. For too long, Gillingham have been in the shadows of our counterparts in South East London, we now hope that all those girls from Kent that feel they have to travel outside it, regardless of their age, will now see Gillingham as a serious club within women's football."

 Women's Football News 2 Jul 2009

Coventry aim for fourth time lucky
 Women's Football News 1 Jul 2009
 
Coventry City are gearing up for another assault on the Midland Combination title in the forthcoming campaign.
 
After narrowly missing out on their "Think Premier" campaign with a runners-up finish last season, the Sky Blues will be eager to put things right this time around. With pre-season training less than two weeks away, manager Paul Cudby is anxious to get started. "I'm really looking forward to pre-season," he said, "it's been a long summer and certainly a very busy one getting everything ready for the new season."
 
Cudby's first season at the helm ended with some real positives as the Sky Blues came close, not only in the League but also the County Cup. "I think there's a buzz amongst the players," he added. "With the staff staying on this season it's given us a very strong foundation to build upon what we started last year. We all know what the players are individually and collectively capable of, and as a coaching team we know exactly how hard we're going to push them to fulfil their potential over this coming season and beyond."
 
The Sky Blues had looked a good bet for silverware when they overcame a slow start to the season to mount a 13-game winning streak. One of the catalysts for the run was the form of attack minded right back Natalie Wilcox, however, the 21-year-old Loughborough University student suffered a season ending injury in a 4-2 victory at TNS and is chomping at the bit to get back into the thick of the action. "Being on the sidelines was frustrating," she recalls. "I live for football and watching as our promotion push fell short and being powerless to do anything about it was without doubt my worst time within the game.
 
"I'm back to full strength and I am looking to make even more of an impact this season. I am mentally and physically stronger with a refreshed outlook and can't wait for pre-season to get underway."
 
Last season's top scorer and player of the year, Helen Dermody, is also eager to get started: "I was really disappointed to miss out on promotion for the third year in a row. We need to start next season well and make sure we don't drop points to teams that we should be beating. I'm really looking forward to next season and hope that we can build on last year and get promotion."
 
Wilcox agreed that a third straight second place was a bitter pill to swallow: "To miss out on promotion for the third time in three seasons was devastating, but we have to channel that into next year. There is a good spirit at the club and hopefully we can learn from the mistakes we have made as individuals and as a team and use it to our advantage this season.
 
"The league is getting tougher but we are getting more experienced so hopefully it will be our year, I'm feeling optimistic."
 
Pre-season training begins on Thursday 9th July at Coventry University's Westwood Heath Sports Ground (7pm-9pm) with sessions also slated for Sunday 12th July, again at Coventry University (10am-12pm) and finally on Tuesday 14th July at the Moathouse facility in Wood End (7pm-9pm). The three training sessions will continue weekly up until the season begins in early September.

Girls Football Week at St Agnes
 Women's Football News 30 Jun 2009
 
As part of the FA and Tesco's Girls Football Week, St Agnes AFC invited 80 girls from local primary schools to take part in a football fun day at Enys Parc on Thursday 25th June.
 
Following on from the success of a similar event last season, eight teams of girls aged 8-11 years attended from different primary schools including St Agnes School, Perranporth School, Goonhavern, Threemilestone, St Johns and St Kea. The girls spent the day learning skills, playing matches and doing fitness.
 
Qualified coaches from St Agnes AFC were ably assisted in the deliverance of the day by sports students Chantelle Goldsworthy, Amber Johnson, Grace Rudlin and Emily Hardaker from Truro College, who spent the day helping as part of their Community Sports Leader Award.
 
Fresh fruit, juice, squash, biscuits and other refreshments for the girls all day was supplied in boundless quantities thanks to sponsorship by local Tesco stores. Referees for the day included Richard Lander School Pupil Ben Pitts, a St Agnes AFC club player who has just qualified as a young referee. Ben was allowed the day out of school to be mentored in his first experience of refereeing and did a cracking job!
 
Medals, trophies and certificates for the day were sponsored by St Agnes business Martyn Kimmins Print with Club President Ian Doble presenting the top overall team of the day, Goonhavern School, with medals and runners-up awards to St Agnes who came a close second. A Special Award for the day was presented to Teah from St Agnes School who received the most votes from coaches, teachers and officials on the day for overall perfermance and contribution.
 
The girls were also invited to join in an England Flag decorating competition with the flags destined to travel with the England ladies team to wish them luck and hang in their hotel as they compete in the European Championships. The best decorated flag trophy was awarded to Kea CP School.
Class Teacher Karen Morgan from St Agnes School commented, "The girls have had an absolutely lovely day thank you so much!"
 
Kevin Barnes, football coach from Threemilestone School said: "This has been brilliant, the boys often get the opportunity to take part in football events like this but the girls rarely get to experience the team comradery and bonding. Well done to St Agnes AFC on planning such a well organized event!"
 
St Agnes AFC Chairman Mandy Kimmins added: "What a great success today has been, all of the school should be really proud of their girls' commitment, behaviour and contribution. It has been a great combination of St Agnes AFC, Truro College, Richard Lander School and our local Primary Schools all coming together to deliver a fun filled, fitness and football day for 80 girls. We hope that St Agnes AFC will be able to field a new under-12 Girls side next season as a result of today and that other girls who have taken part will go on to continue playing football."

Plymouth snap up Welsh defender
 Women's Football News 29 Jun 2009
 
Plymouth Argyle are delighted to announce the signing of Emma White, a Welsh international defender who has recently returned from America.
 
Emma, at 5' 10", may well be an imposing figure in the Argyle defence as she is very much the modern athletic style of player.
 
Before moving to America she had a couple of seasons in the Premier League and represented Wales at junior and under-19 level. The experience gained stateside will stand her in good stead and only a foot injury saw her premature return home.
 
Argyle manager Chris Benham said: "To say I'm a tad pleased, is really understating my delight at signing Emma. Once she is fully fit she will be a great addition to our squad."

England stars help launch Girls Football Week
 Women's Football News 29 Jun 2009
 
England internationals Rachel Yankey and Lianne Sanderson joined local female footballers in London where they hosted an exclusive, free coaching session for local under-16 girls at Whittington Park to mark the launch of the FA Tesco Girls' Football Week. 
 
Local girls under the age of 5 to 16 were invited to come along to Whittington Park where they took part in a uniquely designed free football taster session. Specially trained FA coaches were on hand to give the girls the very best coaching tips, whilst they were able to test their skills in a number of inflatable football games such as target practice and speed camera shooting which were set up on the day. Representatives from the London County FA were also on hand to provide girls with more details on local teams and how to get involved in their local area.
 
Morag Taylor, Marketing Manager for Women's Football at The Football Association, commented: "Girls football is the number one female participation sport in England but we're keen for even more girls to get involved and enjoy the game over the coming seasons. The FA Tesco Girls' Football Week is all about introducing young girls of all abilities to the game, helping them to improve their skills and have fun with their friends."
 
Rachel Yankey added: "It's always good to see young girls participating in the game as after all they are the next generation of the England women's team. Girls' Football Week provides girls who may not have thought about playing football before with a fantastic opportunity to have a fun introduction to the sport and provide them with the means of hopefully continuing their development in the game for years to come."

Ramblers and Leigh Juniors in new link
 Women's Football News 29 Jun 2009
 
Leigh Ramblers YFC and Leigh Junior School have been celebrating the next step in their FA School-Club Link recently after opening up their school training sessions in a club environment at Belfairs Sports Ground thanks to assistance from the Essex County FA and local coach, Howard Mackler.
 
Ramblers have been working closely with Leigh Junior during numerous sessions operated after school on Friday afternoons by Mackler which have proved increasingly popular. Now the relationship between the two groups has blossomed to the extent a potential new Under-10 girls team could be put together to compete in a league environment within the much celebrated FA Charter Standard club.
 
The initiative is aimed at girls in school Years Three and Four who are looking to take up the sport, make new friends and stay in shape. It is the latest in a succession of links which have also taken place in Frinton and Walton, Intersports, Little Oakley, Newbury Forest, Snaresbrook and Island Girls and Jays Youth F.C. On this occasion, schools in Leigh-on-Sea received promotional materials and have had the opportunity to sign-up to taster sessions amidst a school-based setting.
 
Leigh Ramblers were awarded their FA Charter Standard plaque in February at a Southend United FC home game after building a reputation for youth provision, as well as 'Soccability' and girls football. Level Three Coach Mackler, who is also Manager of the Essex Under-18 Representative side, is driving the project and he explained: "The sessions will continue throughout the summer and it is an opportunity for girls to come and play in a friendly and developmental environment."
 
Emma Burden, Girls' & Women's Football Development Officer for Outer Essex, also thanked all concerned for their efforts, adding: "This is the first time we have delivered a School-Club Link with Leigh Ramblers, which was developed as Southend is one of our target areas where we have to increase participation. Howard is a quality coach who lives in the area who was happy to drive the project forward himself."
 
The club opened up their sessions on Saturday 27th June, which take place at Belfairs Park, Eastwood Road North, Leigh-on-Sea, Essex, SS9 4LR from 10am to 11.30am. Queries should be directed to either Howard Mackler on (07966) 488308 or Emma Burden at the ECFA on (01245) 393076 or via e-mail at emma.burden@essexfa.com.
