In Loving Memory of Bill Shaw
In 2018, Bill took his beloved London Corinthians (Girls) team to Dartford FC, establishing what is now Dartford FC Women. To this day, players from Bill’s original team are still part of Dartford FC Women, a testament to his vision and dedication.
His legacy lives on in every player who continues to take to the pitch.
It is with the heaviest of hearts that we say goodbye to a man who touched so many lives in ways words can’t explain. Bill Shaw was so much more than a chairman, manager, coach, and bus driver. He was the heartbeat of our team, a mentor, and a grandad figure to countless girls and women whose lives he shaped forever.
Bill didn’t just build a football team; he built a family. He created a space where girls & women felt safe, supported. He poured his soul into ensuring that we had the best opportunities, the best memories, and the best years of our lives.
Looking back, it’s clear: those were the best times, and Bill was the reason why. Women’s and girls’ football brought him immeasurable joy, and in turn, he gave us joy, confidence, and a love for the game that will last a lifetime.
Bill was more than a coach; he was our biggest supporter, our greatest encourager, and the one who always showed up for us—no matter what. He never let us down, and his memory never will.
Thank you, Bill, for everything. For your moaning , your kindness, and your unwavering belief in us. The world is a little dimmer without you, but your light will shine on in every life you’ve touched.
Rest easy, Bill. You will forever be in our hearts.
