Set on our newly refurbished 3G pitch at Douglas Eyre Sports Centre, 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 Wildcats (8 – 11 year olds) and Squad Girls (11-14 year olds) groups, we aim to support girls with limited experience to become regular participants in the game. By providing a safe, fun and supportive environment the girls we hope that they will be play freely without pressure or judgement.
Each festival will be hosted by a partner club and be supplemented with a monthly goalkeeping clinic and coach education training for parents.
For further information about the festivals please contact Matt Morgan: matt.p.morgan@gmail.com
