THE CLIMB · PHASE ONE
Barry Town United
Where it all began. From an unexpected meeting to a European exit, this is the first complete arc of Kat Roberts' story - the journey that rebuilt a career, a club, and a belief that some saves are worth remembering.
Prologue
A mysterious envelope reignites memories of a forgotten football career. The climb begins.
Chapter One
Kat meets The Association - and the sharp-witted Veruca Salt - to learn the rules of The Climb.
Chapter Two
First sight of Barry Town United. Small club, big heart, and one chairman doubling as the scout.
Chapter Three
First training sessions, quiet pre-season progress, and four players who change everything.
Chapter Four
The first full campaign - chaos, growth, a Welsh Cup win, and the realisation that Barry belongs here.
Chapter Five
Objectives met. Promotion pending. Then silence. The climb pauses, waiting for what's next.
Chapter Six
Control replaces chaos. Barry become champions, and Europe calls for the first time in seven years.
Chapter Seven
Europe tests the limits, Sweden calls, and Kat learns leaving isn't failure - it's proof.
