The news that two of our girls have secured American scholarships, just shows that our Post-16 programme is successfully helping young people to progress in both education and football."The hard work that the girls have put in has paved the way for future scholars to explore US scholarships and football opportunities abroad.” Last month a number of the scholars travelled to Malta where they took part in mid-season training and faced competition from other Maltese clubs. Megan added: “The support I’ve received from the Foundation of Light in the last two years has been unbelievable. I can most definitely say I’ll never forget my experiences with the best squad and coaching staff.”
