Full Name

Charlotte Xena Rose Durrans

Date of Birth

First football memory

My mum taking me to football tournaments when I was 7

Football idol

Probably my Grandad! He absolutely loves the game and is a bit of a hooligan

Position

Centre midfield/forward

Most memorable game played in

Charlotte is loving her time with Holywell FC Girls and Ladies

Holywell’s first ever game as a team against NFA. We had only met a few weeks earlier but we felt like a family straight away. We played well considering we joined the league a year early as well.

Biggest highlight of football career so far

I’ve only been playing competitively again since the Summer so it’s early days, but my favourite so far was celebrating our first league goal playing away against Mountain Rangers. We all celebrated like we had won the league

Representative football played

None sadly as I’m still a newbie

Strengths to your game

Applying pressure and keeping the team’s head up!

Weaknesses

Fitness

Best team-mate played alongside

Probably Sarah Massey, she’s well deserved captain and always motivates us on (and off whilst injured) the pitch but also keeps us in check.

Hardest opponent faced

Holywell and Nomads line up after the first game of the season. Charlotte found the Quay tough opponents. Picture: Lee Douglas

Connah’s Quay Nomads, even more difficult being our first game of the season

Biggest influence in football

Probably all my team mates to be honest. They’re the best motivators

Funniest team-mate

Probably Hazel!

Which team-mate is the best dancer

Probably say Steph Bamford purely for her effort doing the worm haha

Favourite away ground

We’ve only played one away game so far against Mountain Rangers but I’m looking forward to visiting a few more throughout the rest of the season

Personal football ambitions

Score a hat trick
