Girls Football Week – This April!
This year’s FA Girls’ Football Week will be expanded to two events to further drive female football participation. The first week, which is focused on encouraging primary and secondary schools to put on football sessions for girls, will take place from Monday 25 April. The second, 10-16th October, will aim at raising participation at higher and further education establishments. Clubs, community groups, wider educational establishments and other organisations are also being invited to run female-specific sessions during the week.
