We aim to raise enough funds to purchase a game tracking camera for our girls team to help them improve following their 1st Season
Who are we?
We are Trinity Youth U11’s Lionesses — a passionate girls’ football team based in Southend, built on teamwork, confidence, and a love for the game.
Why are we crowdfunding?
From humble beginnings, this season has been a turning point for our Lionesses. Three dedicated dads stepped up to take on coaching roles, united by one goal: to help these girls grow, believe in themselves, and reach their potential through football.
Our players come from a wide range of backgrounds. Many had never kicked a ball — some didn’t even know what the offside rule was! Through hard work, encouragement, and countless hours on the training pitch, we’ve watched them transform week by week. Their confidence is growing, their skills are improving, and their love for the game is shining through.
Now, we want to give them the very best opportunities to keep progressing — and that’s where your support makes all the difference.
How we’ll spend the money raised
Every penny raised will go directly towards the girls’ development and enjoyment of football, including:
Training equipment
Goals and footballs
Match kits and accessories
If we’re lucky enough to exceed our target, we’d love to invest in a match centre camera. This would allow the girls to review matches and training sessions, giving them invaluable feedback to help them learn, improve, and feel proud of how far they’ve come.
Community impact
By supporting the Trinity Youth U11’s Lionesses, you’re doing more than funding football equipment. You’re helping young girls build confidence, resilience, teamwork, and lifelong friendships. You’re supporting grassroots sport, promoting equality in the game, and creating a safe, positive space where girls can thrive both on and off the pitch.
Additionally, following the girls impressive progress, we are beeing asked week in week out by grandparents and distant relatives to provide game footage. If we exceed our target, the Game Camera will potentially allow us to livestream all games given our "FANS" exclusive access to our Girls games.
