Girls Football

Background

Girl’s football is the fastest growing sport in Europe with an ever rising number of girls electing to participate in the beautiful game. The Borders is no exception and the programme has grown from strength to strength over the last eight years.

 

There are opportunities for all girls to take part in football centres for players aged 5 - 11 years of age at the many football centres run by the Football Development Team (see Football Centres).

 

There is then a clear pathway for girls to join the successful  SFA Girls Development Centre which has squads from 10 - 16 years of age.  The coaching takes place at Tweedbank Sports Complex on a weekly basis and is delivered by SFA qualified coaching staff. 

 

The aim of the development programme is to provide a platform for girls with necessary ability and attitude to train on a weekly basis.
