The Climb - 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 climb that rebuilt a career, a club, and a belief that some saves are worth remembering.
📍 Location: Barry, Wales • Chapters #0 – #7 • Status: Complete - Phase One

A mysterious envelope reignites memories of a forgotten football career. The climb begins.
#1 The Meeting
Kat meets The Association - and the sharp-witted Veruca Salt - to learn the rules of The Climb.
#2 Jenner Park
First sight of Barry Town United. Small club, big heart, and one chairman doubling as the scout.
#3 Settling In
First training sessions, quiet pre-season progress, and four players who change everything.
#4 Season One: Kat’s Diary
The first full campaign - chaos, growth, a Welsh Cup win, and the realisation Barry belongs here.
#5 The Review
Objectives met. Promotion pending. Then silence. The climb pauses, waiting for what’s next.
#6 Season Two: Kat’s Diary
Control replaces chaos. Barry become champions, and Europe calls for the first time in seven years.
#7 Phase Complete
Europe tests the limits, Sweden calls, and Kat learns leaving isn’t failure - it’s proof.
