| Shetland Girls' Football |
Shetland Women’s Football Club is pleased to announce that we have been awarded a grant of £4696 from Awards for All Scotland to develop girls’ football in Shetland. With this grant we’ve bought footballs, training equipment, a new football strip, training wear and booked the Gilbertson Park Games hall for training sessions. The timetable for these sessions is: beginning Monday 8th Feb 6 – 7pm and Wednesday 10th Feb 6 – 7pm then every Monday and Wednesday until the last session on Wednesday 28th April.
These sessions will be free, will be open to any girls under 18 and are open to all abilities, so it doesn’t matter if you’re an experienced player or have never kicked a ball in your life. The sessions will be led by fully qualified coaches and there will always be a female member of the coaching team there, parents/carers are of course very welcome to come along.
