Girls teams and mixed football

Some girls want girls teams. Others are happy in mixed football. Availability depends on age group, area, club and league rules.

A good welcome matters

A welcoming coach and the right level can matter more than the badge. Ask whether beginners are welcome and whether the player can try a session first.

Help clubs make opportunities clearer

Clubs and coaches should make it clear when girls’ teams are looking for players, which age groups are open and who parents should contact.
