She Emerge Global Magazine


Jayne Ludlow hopes future Wales women’s managers will be able to devote more time to the senior team.

Ludlow estimates she can spend only 25% of her time on the senior side because she has to “split priorities” with Wales’ women’s age-group teams.

“In the future, do I hope that whoever is sitting here answering your questions is solely a national senior team manager? Hell yes,” she said.

Wales start Euro 2021 qualifying against Faroe Islands on 29 August.

Ludlow signed a four-year contract extension last August having led Wales to second spot in World Cup qualifying, behind eventual semi-finalists England.

She and her backroom team are guiding under-19 and under-17 teams in major tournaments this autumn as well as the senior side.

Ludlow believes it puts Wales at a disadvantage against other teams in their Euro 2021 qualifying pool, which also includes Norway, Northern Ireland and Belarus.

“The role I have is so big I don’t have time to dwell on things,” she said.

“Tonight I will go home and watch an under-19s game from last week and prepare the performance squad sessions for this week. That is reality, that is my job.
