In the season ended July 2024 we had over 80 players joining us at Churt Girls FC, most of whom had never previously played football before at a football club. As a result, we are continuing to run our popular development sessions for girls at all ages from age 5 years old to 23 years old, as we know that it can be difficult for girls to get involved in football when they haven’t played much before.

We know that inexperienced footballers need the confidence to express themselves in a safe and positive environment.

It is also vital that they begin by playing football with girls of around the same age and with a similar level of experience.

This will allow them to fall in love with the game, nurturing their self-belief, ability, and fitness, as well as enabling them to develop new friendships.

From September, our development sessions will take place on Sunday mornings and on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday evenings, depending on the age of the player.

The aim of these sessions is for players to gain the basics and the confidence to play and then to prepare them for flexi league football and then competitive football, either in one of our existing squads, or in another new team we would create in that age group.
