Former Arsenal Ladies and England International Sian Williams will oversee Team Maccabi GB’s Girls Football squad at this summer’s inaugural Maccabi Youth Games in Israel.
Williams, twice a domestic ‘treble’ winner, has played, coached and managed in the UK and abroad.
Most recently she was Hertfordshire Schools FA head coach for Girls U14 and U16.
Her vast experience made her an ideal candidate for the Games.
Yvie Curtis, part of the Junior management team at last years Maccabiah Games, will assist Williams.
Maccabi GB Head of Sport, Neil Taylor, said: “We are delighted to have a coach of this pedigree involved with Team Maccabi GB. Her exceptional caliber we hope will have an effect not only on the Girls Football squad but the Great Britain delegation as a whole.”
Williams commented: “I hope the players have an experience of a lifetime and they leave feeling they have had fun, developed as players and grown as people.”
A few places remain for the squad.
