Good luck girls! Incredibly proud of our u9 girls achievements!
You go, girls! 👏👏
We’re no strangers to top female football stars here in Wigan Borough, and it looks like we could have some future Ella Toones on our hands over at Hindley Green FC too. ⚽✨
Last year, the club's Under 8s Girls marked their very first season in the Manchester Youth Super League by getting all the way to the League Cup Final.
While the final itself didn’t go their way (a narrow 2-1 defeat), it was a fabulous achievement competing against boys their own age and led to them being recognised as a Finalist at our Be Well Wigan Believe Sports Awards. 🙌
Well, this year as Under 9s they’re at it again…
Just like last season, they’ve reached the final without losing a match in the group stages and are now hoping to go one better and lift the cup! 🏆
This time they’ll be taking on Prestwich United U9s Dragons at Fleetwood Town’s Poolfoot Farm training base on Saturday 30 May.
Chris Plimley, a coach and committee member at the club, said: “We’re hugely proud of what the girls have achieved together. 😊
“They’re a great group of dedicated footballers competing and the only all-girls side in their division.
“We’re incredibly proud of them reaching the champions final for a second year in a row, without losing a game. We’re hoping this year they can go one step further and win the trophy!”
Congratulations to the girls on making yet another final, and good luck for the big decider next month. 🤞
