Chelsea Pope

Throughout the last few years, my goal has always been to inspire others. Growing up in Cornwall there wasn’t really any girls football or exposure to opportunities within football. It’s now my mission to ensure girls get all these opportunities and to inspire them. This last year, I’ve worked really hard with Chelsea FC Foundation as a football coach in London to inspire young girls to get involved. I delivered an inspirational workshop alongside Katie Chapman, inspiring girls to play football, coach or get involved. In March this year I’m holding an event in Cornwall called Pitch Pioneers: Empowering young women in football. With the objective of inspiring even more young girls, I aim to be a role model and keep making a positive impact and growing women’s football. I just want girls and boys to have equal access to opportunities to play, coach and have a career in football.
