The ladies 2nd XI play in the East Premier Division, the top Regional League and one division below the National League, the top division that a 2nd XI is allowed to play in. The majority of the teams in this Division are Club first teams, and at Sevenoaks we are as well resourced and supported as our 1st XI.

The team train, on our high quality sand dressed astroturf pitch, on a Wednesday night from 19.30 – 21.30; the 1st team also train at the same time. The 2nd team Coach is Grant Hunt but the lead coach on a Wednesday is Sue Chandler. Training is extremely well planned and organised to ensure that all players from both squads are stretched and challenged.  There is a clear structure over the season, and consistent points of emphasis. (These are also shared with the rest of the ladies section to ensure that we offer all players within the section the chance to progress) There is also a GK coach present each week, and at times another qualified Coach to offer ALL players the chance to improve individually as well as collectively.

Pitch sessions focus on core technical skills, relevant conditioned practices (emphasing decision making), and structured tactical play. These areas are incorporated into a high intensity, competitive and challenging session that also focuses on the specifics of the next weeks opponents.

Fitness testing (videoed and accurately timed) is carried out 3 times per season and players are expected to follow a prescribed fitness schedule weekly. Home matches are often videoed and video analysis is offered for both individual and team development regularly over the season.

The team is Captained by Hazel Lovegrove and she works closely with a leadership group of other players. The squad are accompanied on match days by the Coach, and there is also a qualified First Aider present.

There are clear expectations and goals set at the start of the season, and selection is competitive, fluid and transparent, with players in this team often aspiring for and achieving selection to the 1st XI.

The 2nd XI  are very well supported by the rest of the Club, and are expected to set the very highest standards both on and off the pitch, and to actively support the rest of the section.
