Caitlin Hadaway, 17, recently signed for newly-formed Holywell FC Girls and Ladies, who will play in North Wales Women’s League Division Two this season.
Last season, the winger represented Northop Hall, so some of her Female Focus answers will be based on her time with that team.
Caitlin is the younger sister of Jordan Hadaway, joint-manager of North East Wales League men’s club Caerwys.
