Livingston have announced the expansion of their women’s set-up with the introduction of under-16 and under-18 teams.The club already run a senior team - with the Lionesses currently sitting atop the third-tier SWF Championship - as well as a successful Development side.
But they have now added two youth age teams to the set-up, creating a pathway from under-16 through to senior level.As part of the tie-up between the Tony Macaroni Arena outfit and Blackburn United, the latter’s current under-16 and 18 teams will make the move and become Livingston.The change has been lauded by senior women’s manager Paul Jaconelli as well as men’s head coach David Martindale.Jaconelli commented: “I’d like to thank everyone involved in putting this exciting new chapter for LWFC in place.“It really is the best way forward in order to improve the standard and levels of football within our pathway, making our female role models more available to the girls therefore supporting the growth, development and ambition of our younger players .”Martindale added: “I’m delighted to see the growth of the women’s section continue at the club.
I know there’s been a lot of hard work put in behind the scenes by all those involved and it’s great that the success the women’s section is having on the park is also replicating into a similar success of the entire structure off the park too.“I’m pleased that the club as a whole is able to support the women’s game here in Livingston and hopefully, this is just the first step in the overall progression of the set-up.” Don't miss the latest news from the West Lothian Courier.
