The Lincolnite spoke to Amy Kay ahead of the new season
As England’s Lionesses continue to make history at the European Championships, Lincoln City Women are leaving their own mark on the game, with club captain Amy Kay at the forefront of it all.
It is the latest step towards elevating the women’s game and providing equal opportunities in sport, irregardless of gender. Amy is not just captain of the first team, she is also the women’s pathways leader for Lincoln City Foundation, and a coach within the club’s academy. She truly lives and breathes football and her hard work is now paying dividends.
“But that’s what we are here for, to make sure these younger players get the opportunities to strive for the equality that we maybe didn’t have access to.” “You have to remember the FA banned women’s football for 50 years, unfortunately we’re playing catch up. Nothing happens overnight but it’s great to see young players being encouraged to play football, and we’re seeing that at sessions.”
