Absolute pleasure @TonyFretwell thank you for inviting us to share our plans and vision @CTRLFC and hope it helps with those clubs shaping their own blueprints.
And thank you to @Rob_Nickolay and Danny Wilson of @CTRLFC who shared their Academy plan and its wider influence on the whole clubs redevelopment. Highlighting learning from Rugby League and it’s relevance to Women’s Football #classycas @COYFCast
