Note from our Co-Chair Jo – Womens Season

It Certainly was a tough season – A true nail-biter to the end. 2021/2022 will be Ollies first full season, so I’m sure it’s gong to be one you will NOT want to miss!

At the end of every season we have to say goodbye to some of our beloved squad.

Courtney Brosnan, Laura Vetterlein, Kenza Dali, Anouk Denton, Emily van Egmond, Leanne Kiernan, Cecilie Redisch, Martha Thomas, Alisha Lehmann & Cho So-hyun.

 Its a shame were were’t able to be at Dagenham to give them the send off they deserved. #alwaysahammer

Let’s meet some of our new signings!

Claudia Walker: Former Birmingham City Forward.
Quote from Ollie 

“She’s somebody who knows where the back of the net is and we believe that there is a lot more potential in her in regards to increasing those goalscoring numbers. “She’s quick, powerful and has a fantastic attitude, we’re delighted to bring her to the Club.”

Zaneta Wyne: Experienced Midfielder that previously worked with our Gaffer

Quote from Ollie

“She’s played in a number of countries across the world and somebody who I’ve worked with before. I know that she will bring a lot of positive energy to the team. 
“She is somebody that we believe will represent the football club in the best possible manner.” Tameka Yallop: Australian international, Midfielder, now off to the Olympics with our Mac.Quote from Ollie
“We’re looking for people that will represent West Ham United in the best possible light and inspire the next generation of female footballers in our community – I believe that Tameka ticks all of those boxes.”

Mel Filis: 18 year old, midfielder, is excited to be a Hammer & work with Ollie

Quote from Ollie 

“Mel is a young England international with a lot of potential. She first caught my eye with her attitude, and she is extremely dedicated, wants to work hard and understands the environment she is coming into. 

*Also our new assistant manager is (One of my fave players. I’ll never forget the 2006 FA Cup final goal v Liverpool.) Paul Konchesky!*

Can’t wait for the new season.
(We even have a new hybrid pitch that means, we’ll have one of the best surfaces in the league.)

Super excited to see the squad back at Dagenham. We’ll be back in full voice to cheer on:

Gilly, Kate, Grace, Mackenzie, Hawa, Dagny, Dri, Maz, Nor, Katerina & Lois
