Episode notes
Jenny is the youngest of three daughters and remembers with great fondness how she was always playing sport with her Dad as a young girl.
Very quickly Jenny found her way in football progressing from her local club side in the Tyne Valley to the Newcastle Utd FC Women's Academy to the England junior environment and then injury got in the way and she decided to move on from football.
What she didn't expect was that cricket would be the sport that would fill the void and provide her with so much contentment and mental wellbeing.
She is very grateful to cricket and to the people she has met at Corbridge CC and is now looking for ward to getting stuck into coaching this season for the first time too.
