Getting girls into football

Surrey County FA holds a running a women-only Age Appropriate Coaching Course at Coloma Girls School, Croydon, on March 26 (10am-4pm).

Whether it’s playing, volunteering, refereeing or coaching, your County Football Association is providing opportunities to get involved in local football.

Surrey County FA has already run a successful female-only Level 1 in Croydon. The Age Appropriate follows on from this course, but it is also available to non-qualified women looking to get a coaching qualification.

Jon Burr, women and girls football development officer, said, “This is a great opportunity for women to get into football. Surrey County FA is focusing on growing women’s participation in grass roots football and we’ve had a number of courses available this year.”
