based on our newly refurbished 3G pitch, the Hub provides an exciting opportunity for us to work in collaboration our clubs to create a female friendly, pressure-free environment where girls can learn the game and flourish.
In hosting monthly festivals for new players, mainly drawn from clubs who are providing football coaching for primary school girls aged 6 – 11 years and secondary school girls aged 11-14 years, we aim to support girls with limited experience to become regular participants in the game. By providing a safe, fun and supportive environment for the girls we hope that they will be able to play freely without pressure or judgement.
Each festival is hosted by a partner club and is supplemented with regular goalkeeping clinics and coach education training for parents.
- The Festivals for 6-11 year olds take place on the 1st Sunday of every month. For further information please contact Matt Morgan – Ryan FC W&G Lead: matt.p.morgan@gmail.com.
