Jill Scott revisits her childhood team that produced three Lionesses
Watch We Are England- England's Next Lionesses onJill Scott ended 2022 as a European champion and the queen of the jungle.
Boldon Girls was established in 1992 by Paul Smith, and the club counts three Lionesses among its alumni - Scott, Steph Houghton and Demi Stokes. But in a tale that is all-too-familiar for the Lionesses, Scott struggled to find opportunities to play football as a child."I got told at the age of nine that I couldn't play with the boys any more. I had to go and find a girls' team. That was when I found Boldon and met Paul Smith.
Smith did - and he can now reflect on seeing young players he coached go on to achieve international success. In 2020, the organisation launched a women's and girls' strategy, called Inspiring Positive Change, which aimed to increase participation.it reported that since October 2021, there had been a 17% increase in female affiliated players across all levels of the game, a 30% increase in female registered football teams, and a 15% increase in female youth teams.
