Arsenal winger Vivienne Lia has a message for girls: "Don't be ashamed of the fact that you enjoy football.
"When you're younger, it is easy to fall into the shadows of the game, because you feel like you're a girl and you can't do that."
The 18-year-old, currently on loan to Southampton, believes Arsenal's grassroots initiatives are vital for encouraging girls into the sport.
The club marked the 40th year of its Arsenal in the Community programme with a report into its impact.
