Right Back
A talented, reliable footballer who puts 100% into every game and training session. A great listener, who always wants feedback about how to improve and is a vocal member of the team; a natural leader. Carys can play any defensive position and is an intelligent player, who understands the game and works well in a team. She never shies away from getting involved in tackles and a strong strength is her distribution and contribution to attacks; her assists are renowned. A player who you would want playing with you, rather than against you.

“It’s not often you come across a leader with the maturity and team ethos that Carys shows on and off the pitch. With a challenging season of leading a girls team forward into a boys league a leader was needed and Carys combined her passion and want to succeed in football with the balance of leadership, giving her team mates the confidence and emotional support to strive forward! This was always backed up with her ability to read a game and play every minute at 100%! It’s been an absolute pleasure coaching Carys on this journey and I can’t wait to see where her journey will go!”
