Her Story: Brogan, AFC Leyton First Team Captain & U12s Team Manager

Brogan, AFC Leyton First Team Capitan & U12s Team Manager

Age: 24

Position: CB/LB

I’m a entrepreneur and a Youth lead for a awarding winning charity that support young people to use their lives experience to start up their own social enterprise.

I’m a female coach currently going for my UEFA C badge to up skill my level of coaching to be better equipped for coaching young females.

My heritage is Caribbean – Jamaica & St Lucia, my Great Grandparents came over during the Windrush to worked for Ford – fixing cars.  They went onto working on black cabs up in London.

How I keep in touch with my heritage is listening to stories of how life was for them during that time. Currently my grandparents are in the Caribbean buying land and building hotels in the area they grew up in, with the expectation of one of the grandchildren to run and grow the hotel.
