Supported by an Arts Council England DYCP grant, photographer Amanda McCormack spent six months capturing images of Fremington FC’s female teams from the Wildcats, who start at 5 years old, to the women’s team aged 16 and up. The project has been about more than just getting action shots says Amanda: “I wanted to show the strength and resilience of the girls' sport at grassroots level. I got much more than that. There have been many exciting moments but the quiet, off pitch scenes have also provided some beautiful images telling the story of what grassroots sport is all about.”
