Laura Kaminski only embarked on her first season of senior management in the summer of 2023, but now she’s reached the top flight.
Kaminski took Crystal Palace to the Championship title last term, guiding them through a closely-fought battle at the top to earn their spot in the WSL.
It was a demanding title race, but Kaminski kept her cool. She said she never looked at the table and trusted that performances would pay off.
“I am a thorough believer that the performances will speak for themselves, and if you perform well each week, then the proof’s in the pudding.”
Kaminski, who was previously an assistant at Tottenham when they were promoted to the WSL, also spent five years with England’s under-19 team.
Life in the top division of English football will be a big change for Palace, but Kaminski said she hopes her team will relish it and show why they are here.
“They put themselves in a position where they all deserve to be there, so now go and show the world what you’re capable of doing at the top level, because there’s eyes all over it and you deserve to be seen,” she added.
Manchester City and England defender John Stones talks with Football Focus’ Betty Glover to discuss his hybrid role under Pep Guardiola and how he has “lived his dream”.

Vivianne Miedema: Manchester City summer signing to score against Arsenal ‘written in stars’
Miedema felt joining City was a straightforward decision and added: “For me football has always been really important but I have only made my football decisions based on two things – my happiness off the pitch and on it.
“When I spoke to [City manager] Gareth [Taylor] I knew the football was going to be fine. I’m still living in the UK, London is two hours away so it’s the perfect step. I’ve really settled in on the pitch and starting to get to know the girls off the pitch.
“Putting one and one together made this a very easy decision in the end.”
City came second in the WSL last season, missing out on the title on goal difference to Chelsea, with Arsenal finishing third, five points behind.
Taylor felt Miedema’s signing and her versatility made his squad stronger.
“We’re pleased,” Taylor told 5 Live. “Viv, we’re working on her in a number of positions and we know what she can bring. She has been known as a number nine or someone who plays behind a striker.
“So when you have these options at the top end of pitch like Mary fowler, Aoba Fujino, Chloe Kelly, Lauren Hemp, Bunny Shaw and players like Viv, Jessie Park, Laura Coombs, Jill Roord, Laura Blindkilde Brown, we’ve got talented players that can bring different options so we’ve strengthened a little bit in that area.”
