My mum and dad have always supported me in the sport I play and took me to every game. So without them I wouldn’t have been able to achieve what I have already.

Haven’t had the opportunity to see who can dance at Llanberis ladies yet but of past teams the dancer has always been Ffion Bee

I hope to keep Llanberis ladies going and develop to become a bigger squad and make an under-16’s team to be able to fill the women’s squad in years to come. But in the meantime to enjoy playing football.
