EE, the UK’s best network and lead partner of the Home Nations Football Associations, today unveils Just For Kicks – an initiative that will see free, fun football taster sessions for women and girls take place at six of EE’s Connected Clubs across the Home Nations throughout September and October.
After a summer that saw Home Nation success during the Women’s European Championships, with 17.4 million viewers tuning in to watch England’s victory in the final, Just For Kicks hopes to continue to inspire a new generation of female footballers across the nation.
Open to women and girls aged 16 – 24, each taster session will include a variety of tips and tricks to help new and experienced players up their games and improve their performance. From fun ice breakers to skills and technique training, there is something for every footballer-in-training. Plus, all participants will be able to put their new skills into practice during match play.
Each of the two-hour long sessions will be led by local coaches, with the first sessions at each club supported by a legend of each country’s women’s national team. Aspiring players looking to join a football community near them can sign-up online for free at any of the following, depending on their location (Northern Ireland/Scotland/Wales/England –Petts Wood and Merseyrail Ladies).
