OTB Football · In Her Boots takes Kiltullagh | "It's just unbelievable what they're doing" | OTB x Aviva · 27 Apr 2026 podcast

you wouldn't have known, even having coached in America for a while?

Do you see much of a difference now leading the sessions with the under 13s in terms of confidence?

It's great for the girls to see that the coaches are being coached as well.

And you could see it as well, like I saw it firsthand coming in here, like the girls looked like they were absolutely buzzing to get onto the pitch.

There's no, oh, I kind of just, I'm being dragged here, I don't want to be here.

Because it's like rural enough club here, say we're nestled in between a couple of big towns.

It's incredible that you're having those kind of numbers.

Yeah, you weren't giving us all your titles there.

So yeah, there's a lot of jobs you're doing.

And we're here, I suppose, this evening to chat about the In Her Boots programme run by Aviva and the FAI.

How did you first get involved in the programme?

Was there anything in particular that you were looking forward to learning about before doing the programme?

Or were you going in with a bit of an open mind?

Do you see a difference now in the girls when you're training them now that yourself and the other coach and staff have done the programme and you approach training a little bit differently?

Do you see a difference in the girls on the pitch?

And for yourself, did you grow up playing football or did you kind of take it up a bit later?

What's your favourite thing about playing football?

You get the sense of that completely.

Even arriving in, you've been so welcoming.

Do you think there's a certain advantage to you coaching younger girls, knowing maybe what was going through your head when you dropped out because you thought you couldn't do all of these sports at once and you can maybe give advice to the girls now that might be thinking the same thing?
