applciations to become a wildcats, squad girls and just play provider are now open!
Shropshire FA are excited to announce as of Monday 16th January 2023, the new application window to become a Wildcats, Squad Girls’ and Just Play programme provider has opened.
What is Wildcats?
Weetabix Wildcats is an offer for every girl aged 5-11, regardless of ability, disability, impairment, or health condition, to try football for the first time in a fun, safe environment.
Sessions take place on a weekly basis, either evenings or at weekends, and are focused on helping girls make friends, have fun and be active through football.
All sessions are delivered by FA qualified coaches, providing a safe place for girls to try football for the first time and develop key skills.
What is Squad Girls?
A fantastic follow on from Wildcats, Squad Girls’ is a programme established for girls between the ages of 12-14 and aims to create a fun, relevant and engaging recreational offer that allows them to develop themselves as much as their football skills in a safe, inclusive environment. The programme aims to give choice and voice to the girls who are involved in the sessions.
Similarly, to Wildcats, Squad sessions are delivered by qualified coaches in an engaging and flexible format to help boost confidence and develop their social identity.
What is Just Play?
Just Play is recreational football at its best. It’s laid-back, fun, inclusive, have-a-kickabout football, designed for those aged 16+, for adults, men, women and disabled people.
One of the benefits of becoming a Just Play provider is flexibility – you can make your sessions open to all, or you can tailor and advertise them to a specific audience – veterans, female-only, over 60s mixed.
