How It All Started
We both grew up playing football together locally and now represent Dorset. We've experienced first-hand the development, confidence and sense of belonging that sport brings. Last season we proudly wore sponsored kit from the Steven Bernard Foundation while competing in an international tournament in France, which reinforced how powerful community backing can be for women's sport.
But there was a problem. There is currently very limited provision for adult women's football locally. Many women either travel significant distances to play or drop out of the game entirely due to lack of opportunity.
So we decided to build something ourselves. Not just a league — a community. A place where women can come together to play sport, stay active, socialise and support each other. That's HER5.
