Bethany Thomson

Player – Ladies Flag

Fillies – #84

2019 – present

 

 

Position: Quarterback, Corner
Teams played for: Grangemouth Colts, Aberdeen Silvercats
Fun Fact: There was a combined 57 years of football experience in Bethany’s family before her first season in 2021.

 

With her dad and brother being so heavily involved in Flag Football it seems to have taken her a while to gravitate towards the Club.

In the past few years Bethany has attended many games, but in 2018 she was virtually an ever-present supporter at both Broncos and Colts games.

At the 2018 Awards night Bethany was presented with a Club Kelpie Award. While she wasn’t likely to appear in any of the stats, she had been at almost all of the club games, both Broncos and Colts, league, tournaments and friendlies, all over the country, and only work stopped her from travelling to Germany. She helps out on the sideline with video and photography, taking stats, fetching and carrying. She has joined in at practices when required even though until 2019 she had no intention of playing. Her enthusiasm for the Club is such that she has brought friends along to our games and nights out.

In 2019 Bethany was one of the founder members and a chief instigator of the Grangemouth Fillies team.
