She said: “I think it is great to encourage more people in the women’s game. The last few years have been massive and obviously the World Cup this year when England finished third was a big inspiration to the women’s game.
“The more support that we get and the more we stick together and really put women’s football out there on the map, I think the more people are going to get involved.”
Our COGs sessions been so successful that other clubs are following Crawley Town’s lead and the initiative has also attracted financial support from the Football League Trust. The League’s Female Football Development Officer Nicole Meredith also attended Monday’s session.
Amy said: “It was fantastic to welcome Jordan and show her how successful COGs has become.
“She played for England the day before but stayed for two hours and the girls enjoyed having an England player in their session.
“The girls had a fantastic night and I’d like to thank Jordan, the FA and the Football League Trust for helping to make it such a success.”
