Norwich City Community Sports Foundation are delivering a FREE Girls World Football Festival for girls aged 7 to 14 on Saturday 19th August, in collaboration with the Mid Norfolk Youth League (MNYL).
Participants will take part in a range of activities focussing on different football skills, including matchplay, with each station being themed on a different country’s style of play.
During the festival, staff will be looking to identify players to join the Foundation’s Girls’ Football Development Programme; with age groups from U8 through to U16, our programme is tailored to give players the best opportunity to progress both on and off the field.
Please arrive in any training kit with shin pads, boots and a water bottle.
