Becca Halliday / Women & Girls Development Officer

Becca joined the team in January 2024. Her role is to sustain and enhance the Women & Girls offer in Gloucestershire, to work closely with clubs, volunteers and schools to provide the best opportunities for all such as Lady Taverners, indoor leagues and summer leagues. Alongside this, she also goes into schools and community settings to deliver our programmes.

 

Becca is originally from Plymouth, moving up here when she started this role in January. She has come through the Devon pathway, and now represents the Gloucestershire County Womens team and Glamorgan Academy. She has thoroughly enjoyed her time coaching in the CAG pathway including attending many festivals throughout the summer!

 

Outside of work, she enjoys cricket as well as just watching and playing sports in general, going out with friends, travelling and the beach! She has also been a big time Liverpool fan since she was 4.
