The Kilgetty Ladies team was formed at the beginning of the 2007/2008 season. Although they had not previously known each other, they immediately bonded and worked well as a team, all becoming good friends on the way.

Throughout the season they have improved game after game with great turn outs on training nights. Always putting a great deal of effort in to improve individually and as a squad, with plenty of laughs on the way.

Kilgetty’s great cup run came down to the final played at the Bridge Meadow Ground on a pitch that was in great condition, against a quality Haverfordwest County team. It proved to be a great 90 minutes of football played by both teams finishing 1 – 1. A fantastic Kilgetty goal came from some dynamic build up play, finishing with a goal placed in the top corner.

Extra time was much of the same great football with another goal scored for each team. And so, at the end of the match, with the final score at 2 – 2, it went to penalties. The atmosphere was tense, but the victory was sealed when Kilgetty won the penalty shoot out 3 – 2.

The start of the west wales ladies football league kicked off with a tournament at Kilgetty, some of the teams are pictured.
