“It’s with heavy hearts that we say goodbye (for now) to two incredibly special people Amy and Carl who are stepping down from their roles on the management team at Barton Town Women.
Amy has been there since day one. From the very first conversations about creating a women’s team two seasons ago, to recruiting players, planning sessions, and leading us into that very first match - a tough first game where 11 brave players left the pitch battered, bruised, and completely exhausted. But that game marked the beginning of something truly special.
With Carl joining shortly after, the team continued to grow in confidence, ability, and spirit. Together, they helped shape the foundations of a team that has gone from strength to strength and in our recent season, we proudly finished fifth in our division in just our second year of playing.
We are so proud of what they’ve both helped us achieve, and so thankful for the time, care, and belief they’ve given to this team. Their passion has left a lasting mark not just on the pitch, but in the hearts of every player who’s had the privilege of being coached by them.
We wish them both all the very, very best in whatever comes next and we fully respect their reasons for stepping down. There will always be a place for them here on the coaching team, in the dugout, or simply cheering from the sidelines. And always, in our Barton Town family.
Please don’t be strangers.” - Lynn Green Director of Women’s Football 💙 🦢
