Karen Dare

I am 55 years old and didn’t have an opportunity to play football when I was younger. I started playing with Crawley Old Girls 5 years ago and am making up for all those lost years! I currently play walking football with 2 men’s groups, I was selected for the England women’s Over 50s walking football squad. By the way, I also manage a women’s & non-binary 11 a side team that plays in the Sussex league, I am also a qualified referee and regularly take charge of girls matches and I coach women’s walking football…

I am a passionate player, a good Manager, a lovely coach and a fair referee!
