U16s | Quadruple Signing

We are extremely delighted to announce the signings of Joanne Lindsay, Imogen Laing, Faith Scobie and Millie Brown to our U16’s squad.

Faith a midfielder, Millie a striker, Imogen and Joanne both wingers all join after playing for Kirrie Thistle CFC last season.

One of the U16’s coaches, Dean Boath commented: “We’re over the moon with signing 4 highly capable players to strengthen our team heading into the new season. They’ve been training with the group for a couple weeks now and have settled in really quickly with the squad. We can’t wait to give them their debuts in our pre-season game against Arbroath this Saturday morning”.

He then looked ahead to the 2022 season: “We’re looking forward to the new season kicking off on the 19th and hope to improve on a solid previous season. The squad have come back with extra hunger to put the wrongs right this season and it has shown in training and it will be great to get some game time in before kicking off the season. The new faces and extra competition for places has brought a new freshness and added a new level of intensity to training with the whole squad working hard and pushing each other. We’re looking forward to seeing the team continue to develop over 2022”

SWF Youth League Cup Success for U13s

Inverkeithing Strollers 1 Fofar Farmington FC 13s 5

A magnificent performance from our U13s secured the East Region League Cup at a sunny St Andrews on Saturday.

Forfar started the game brightly & attacked from the off.  Martyna Kisiel opened the scoring on 5 minutes when sent through the middle she calmly rounded the keeper to slot home.  Inverkeithing drew level in the 12th minute when a corner was only half cleared, the midfielder scoring with a good finish from the middle of the box. 

Forfar restored their advantage before half time with a cracking individual goal. Lily Christie picked the ball up on the half way line beating a couple of players before scoring into the far corner off the post. 

HT 2-1

Forfar continued to press after the break & there lead was extended with a move straight from the training ground.  A corner from Brodie Greenwood was volleyed home by Eilidh McDiarmid. 

Forfar were now controlling the game and they added a fourth when a brilliant cross field pass from Alix Saddler found Vivian Kerr at the edge of the box. Vivian controlled it first time and her right footed shot found the far corner.   Another Greenwood corner was unfortunately turned into the net by an Inverkeithing defender to finish the scoring. 

FT 5-1

McCallum Overjoyed To Represent Country

Philippa McCallum was the latest to represent the club for their country last week when she appeared for the Scotland U16’s in a Development Tournament.

The 14 year old started the second and third games against Iceland and Czech Republic, helping the Scots keep a clean sheet in both while grabbing an assist in the former game.

McCallum spoke of her delight to be appearing for her country and reckons it was a privilege to be involved.

She said: “It feels fantastic to be involved with the national squad at that level.  I feel really proud to be representing them. I’m very pleased with all of my performances during the tournament and felt really privileged to be on the pitch.”

The youngster, who can play in the centre of midfield or at left back hopes she can elevate herself to the older national squads and one day play in the Premier League with Farmington. McCallum has already trained in the club’s Performance Squad and hopes the good run can continue.

“I hope to one day play for the first team at Farmington and hopefully this will help me continue to play at international level for a long time.”

She continued: “I’ve been asked to train with the senior squad before and hopefully this will help me progress as a team player at that level.”

Farmington Youngsters Involved In SFA Coaching Course

The club are encouraging their young footballers to expand on their football knowledge by getting involved in coaching courses.

16 year old Performance Squad members Leah White and Caitlin Mitchell along with 18 year old Rachelle Milton from our Ladies squad all took part in the recent SFA East Region 1.1 Early Touches course at Brechin High School.

All three girls have been involved with the club’s youth setup by coaching the U7 and U9 groups. It is an ideal situation to have these young women, who have achieved so much at Farmington, help with the junior girls and offer real female football role models for the youngsters at the club.

Junior Co-ordinator Jane Luckhurst is pleased to see players get involved with coaching younger girls, explaining: “In order to be successful our club relies heavily on volunteer help, as every club does, but the ideal situation would be if we could encourage more players to get involved in the coaching side of the club. This allows them to pass on their knowledge to the junior girls, and the junior girls are delighted to have the older players as coaches.”

Leah, Caitlin and Rachelle will all be taking part in the Level 1.2 course next month.
