Club helps inspire the next generation of female players in Brent

Over 70 girls aged 9-11 from nine schools in Brent took part in the tournament which was held at the Ark Academy on Friday 23rd March.

The Foundation has been working with the participants since September 2017 through its after-school football club for girls which has been delivered as part of the Club’s Primary School Sports programme in Brent. The initiative sees two specialist Development coaches based full-time in the Borough supporting 24 schools with football and sports activities in-line with the PE curriculum.
