Following the huge success of women’s football this summer, we caught up with Sgt Karl Ross, a football coach for the women’s team at RAF Coningsby, to talk about his love for the sport and how he mentored the team to several victories.
“Over the years, the RAF Coningsby women’s team have benefitted on several occasions from RAF Central Fund support for things such as tournaments and equipment. Earlier this year, we were lucky enough to be awarded grant funding for our own goals, something that has been evident in increasing moral as we would previously have to book a pitch outside of the Station due to not having these facilities in place."
