Winchester Walking Football Club is delighted to announce that our exceptional coach Heather Kirkland has been named Female Referee of the Year at the Walking Football Association Grassroots Awards. This prestigious recognition celebrates the outstanding contributions of volunteers who dedicate themselves to the development and growth of walking football across the country.
The award marks another remarkable achievement in what has been an extraordinary year for Heather. Her dedication to the sport spans multiple roles – as a coach, player, manager, and referee – and her passion for walking football continues to inspire everyone at Winchester Walking Football Club.
Heather's impact on our club has been nothing short of transformative. Under her guidance, our team has achieved an impressive streak of six consecutive tournament victories, testament to the effectiveness of her weekly coaching sessions. Her ability to bring out the best in players, combined with her deep understanding of the game, has elevated the standard of walking football at Winchester.
This latest accolade adds to Heather's growing list of achievements, which includes being named joint Coach of the Year by the Walking Football Association. Her expertise in the sport stems from her experience as a former international player, and she continues to make history as the manager of the England Women's Over 60's Walking Football team.
The Walking Football Association Grassroots Awards recognize the unsung heroes who contribute their time and expertise to the sport. Heather's recognition as Female Referee of the Year highlights not only her technical expertise but also her commitment to maintaining the highest standards of fair play and sportsmanship.
Winchester Walking Football Club extends its warmest congratulations to Heather on this well-deserved recognition. Her continued dedication to the sport and our club serves as an inspiration to all members of the walking football community.
