BLYTH SPARTANS JUNIOR GIRLS F.C.
Pen pics for the squads for the new season 2007/08.

Under 10’s.
The U10 team did very well last season ending runners up in the Championship. The new group are:-

Megan Green: Megan only came to the club at the end of last season and became a member of the squad. She has worked hard in the summer as the squad’s new goalkeeper and will be a vital part of the team this season.

Rebecca Hills: Rebecca was a vital defender in the 2006/07 squad. So much so that she was the winner of the manager’s player of the year for last season. A great asset.

Isabella Gongas: Bella is the captain of the team for the new season and is a very important cog in the team whether she plays in defence or midfield. A tough tackling player. Last season’s player of the year.

Amber Witson: Amber was also a member of last season’s squad and did very well for the club. This season she will have a more important role for the club, probably as a defender.

Beth Davison: Another new player who has come on leaps and bounds in the summer. She does everything asked of her and she will continue to progress over the coming months.

Tyler McGowan: Tyler joined at the end of last season and played for us in friendlies earlier in the year. She has the ability to progress.

Shaunagh McGowan: Tyler’s cousin who joined at the same time. She has great ability and will become better throughout the season.

Georgia Lyall: Georgia catches the eye straight away with her talent. She has real potential and is one of the best players for her age around. She will cause opposition teams problems.

The Management: Deborah Wall & Kate Reay.

Easily the youngest management team in the league which makes last season’s achievements even more satisfying. Deborah is a FA Level 1 coach who has just completed he BSc in Sport and Exercise Development while Kate is due to take her level 1 soon and has just had great success in her GCSE’s.

The Under 12’s
Last season’s squad did well to finish in mid-table of the Championship. This season they may be a little depleted as some players move up to the Under 14’s.

Jade Corbett: We believe that Jade is one of the best goalkeepers around. She has natural ability and is in her fourth season at the club.

Bethan Sproat: Bethan has started to make great strides in recent months. She is strong and quick and will do a great job for us in the coming months.

Bethany Scott: Bethany has moved up from the Under 10 squad and may find life in the higher age group more challenging but she is capable of overcoming any obstacles.

Michaela Blench: Michaela came to us from AE Phoenix and has fitted into the club well. She can play a number of roles and is strong in the tackle.

Rachel Short: One of the best defenders in the club with the ability to carry the ball out of defence. She is the Under 12 captain for the coming season.

Megan Burns: Megan is better known in the club for being a strong defender but can also play a vital role in the squad as a striker.

Lauren Little: Lauren was the captain of the Under 10 team last season and we feel will live up to expectations in the 12 squad this year. Can play in defence, midfield or if necessary, attack.

Samantha Angus: Just joined the club and has quickly fitted in. Even in the short space of time she has been with us she has looked like becoming an asset.

Kaysleigh Hudspith: Kaysleigh will captain the side if Rachel is absent. She has more talent than she believes and we feel will become even better over the next few months.

The Management: Dave Wall & Steve Reay.

Dave and Steve ran the Under 12 team season and will run both the 12’s and 14’s this season. They are both FA Level 1 coaches Dave being involved in many aspects of Blyth Spartans.

The Under 14’s.
Tamsin Brown: Tas had a great season as goalkeeper for the Under 12 team last season and has the attributes to do it again this time around.

Kate Barber: Kate is a very strong defender who joined us a couple of years ago from Blyth Town. She is a vital member of the squad.

Catherine McGlen: Catherine is a player who has developed well as a defender over the last year. She is tough and fearless in the tackle.

Sarah Higgins: Sarah has recently rejoined the club after spells with Blyth Rangers and Cramlington Blue Star. A very talented player who will bring much to the squad.

Kelsey Henderson: Kelsey has recently joined after being very successful with Blyth Town. She is a mainly left sided player who will be a great asset to us.

Danielle Robinson: Joined us recently with no experience but is a natural talent. Danielle will be very successful with us in the coming season.

Ashlee May: Ashlee was the player’s player of the year in last season’s Under 12 squad. A player who can contribute much with great pace.

Sarah Reay: Sarah is a prolific goal scorer but there is much more to her game. She has great ability and vision and she will again feature prominently this season.
