First and foremost I would just like to say a massive thank you to all the front line and key workers who though out this past year have been absolutely brilliant, and if it wasn’t for there hard work we wouldn’t be able to be getting back to football so from myself and everyone at Stenhousemuir Ladies we would like to thank them.

Return to Training

It’s great to finally be back, it’s been a tough year with a lot of stops and starts and months where football has been missing.  To be able to get everyone back together again is fantastic. But the hard work starts now for everyone involved to be ready come August when the new season starts. It’s been fantastic to be back already and even more so now that myself and our  head of woman’s and girls Andrew Thomson have worked so hard off the pitch to make some great improvements. This has now built a strong structure and base for the ladies department that can only help us improve year by year.

Puma Kit Deal 

I am absolutely delighted with the news of 5 year Puma kit deal, I think it just shows the where Stenhousemuir Football Club is going as a whole club and having a brand like puma can only help that. .. as a player myself I know going to a team that has good brand and quality of kit can make a massive difference. It’s something that we hope will allow us to attract more players to this fantastic football club.

Friendlies 

We have some great friendlies lined up against some top teams, these will be a great test to us as a team, but that’s the level we want to be playing at so it will be great to see how we collectively as a coaching staff and players handle that kind of environment. Myself and the coaching staff want to really challenge the players when ever we can, and with friendlies against good teams like Hamilton WFC, St Johnstone WFC and Glasgow Uni Woman’s it will allow us to do that. With that said the focus for us within these games is not the result it’s self, it’s to get across our game model and really focus on making sure the players really understand it.

Games Programme

I am looking forward to the games programme as it allow us get more game time under our belt, the fixtures are not long out and having looked at them there won’t be an easy game, and that’s what we want, we want it still be challenging for us. It’s also going to be a great test for the players, because you know what it’s like when your not playing for something it can be hard to keep the players motivated, but that is a challenge myself and the coaches are really relishing. But I believe we have the right group of players that it won’t be a problem for us.
