Colwyn Bay Football Club have just announced a new appointment to the club's board of directors.

Jennifer Whitlock brings a wealth of both sporting and business knowledge to the role, having run Le Sport Health & Fitness in Rhos on Sea with her husband, Phil, since 1996.

With a BSc. in Sport Science, Jennifer’s passion for sport is deeply ingrained and having represented Wales as an international sprinter herself, her sporting legacy has now been passed down to her children with daughter Emily having recently been ranked no.12 in the Professional Squash Association (PSA) World rankings, and son Adam, a proven goal- scorer in non-league football, who played for Northwich 1874 last season in the Hallmark Security League Premier Division.

Having been chairman of Sport Conwy and the North Wales Performance Group, Jennifer is well versed in promoting sport as a lifestyle and assisting athletes with regards discrimination judged on their geographic residence.

Earlier this year, she was also voted on to the board of directors for the Colwyn BID, to encourage partnership working between the local authority and the business community.

Through her work with the Colwyn BID, Jennifer is keen to ensure that the Bay of Colwyn continues its generation and feels that Colwyn Bay Football Club should be at the very heart of the community.

The club was said to be "extremely impressed with Jennifer’s experience, knowledge and passion and look forward to working with her".
