My first involvement with Coventry Schools' F.A. was in 2000 as a parent supporting my son who played for them from U12's through to U15's.
My husband took on the role of Team Manager in 2003 in our son's last season and then went on to the form the next seasons U12 team.
My intention was to attend the first few games of the new team until their parents had organised who was going to arrange the hot drinks etc, on matchdays.
I did not miss a game for the next 4 years! I was "promoted" to team laundry lady by Paul as well!
Last season I volunteered to be responsible for the Associations web-site and when our Secretary, Luis Cabrera decided to retire from his position, I was asked if I was prepared to take on that role too.
I have made so many friends through the years with the Association and hope to make many more in the years to come.
