Meet the team
Chairperson & Club Secretary
I am a dedicated leader who desires to remove barriers and promote equality. With over 25 years of experience in the Education and Finance Sectors, my journey with Bristol Palace FC began with a simple vision: that every child deserves a safe place to learn and grow.
Raised in a family with a collective love for the beautiful game of football, football has been one of the main contributing factors to our togetherness. Whether it was watching my father coach a local men’s community football team, my brothers playing for their local clubs every weekend, or travelling to watch our team at Old Trafford as supporters; football has always been a part of our life.
I have seen firsthand that children can thrive in any environment when they feel a sense of belonging and have the right support. I hope to help children enjoy the game and develop their social skills.
Vice Chairman & Head Coach
Growing up, I lived and breathed football and remained dedicated to the game. Following my children’s interest and the challenges within club football, I aim to build a club that fosters a productive environment for the future generation of football players. In my youth, I played semi-professional football and my biggest achievements were competing in the FA Youth Cup and participating in tournaments across Europe.
Through my experiences, I have made unforgettable memories, which I share with my children and push them to create their own through their connection with the sport. Grassroots football was where this all began for me, so I understand and value the role it plays when transitioning into the next levels of the game. The skills and knowledge developed through my experience as a former player shall be at the fore front of my coaching on the pitch, balanced with understanding and having fun.
Coach & Club Welfare Officer
I have a passion working with young people of different ages. I have loved football from a young age and support Arsenal football club. I enjoy being part of the footballing environment and have coached a U14’s football team whilst in London, we managed to get to the final where the team won the cup.
I am passionate about helping young people thrive and have experience working within a primary and secondary school setting.
