Leek Town Warriors was a girls' football team Which used to get routinely defeated every time they turned out，until James Henry stepped in two years ago.He took the job when the previous coach quit and transformed the team's fortunes.With the help of his assistant Andy Austin，they started training hard in April 2020.
Some players had never kicked a football before joining the team，so training them took hours of hard work and patience.After a good few weeks，they got down to training and really started to take it in what the coach wanted. "I insist on doing the basic stuff well and letting the girls decide what they feel they need to work on." James said.
James' first season was ruined by the pandemic，which forced him and Andy to get creative with training.They organized team-building activities with the girls to help them bond on and off the field.James then spent the sessions they could hold focusing on the basics of football like passing and shooting，bringing the girls up to a good standard.
James watched the girls develop over the course of last year，and in September they played their first match of the new season.They won the game，and since then went on an unbeaten run of eight games.The team's star player，15-year-old Chelsea，has also impressed the audience individually，becoming the top scorer in the league with incredible 30 goals.
James said， "All the effort that the girls，us coaches and parents have put in to get this point has been enormous.If I hadn't had the Support of Andy helping me every week，this would have been an impossible task.So I'm incredibly grateful to have him on side.All we want is to bring more girls into the game and show that it's not all about having the best players；it's about hard work and giving everyone the chance to play."
