Soccer Sisters

Soccer Sisters: Wicklow Local Sports Partnership & the FAI Women’s Development Programme have been instrumental in establishing the Soccer Sisters Programme in a number of area’s and clubs in Co. Wicklow. The most recent programme was organised in conjunction with Greystones Utd F.C. The Soccer Sisters Programme is an FAI programme aimed at increasing the number of girls playing soccer countrywide. It is also designed to attract new volunteers into soccer i.e. parents and guardians. Through the Soccer Sisters Programme girls aged 7-11 years can learn to play soccer in a fun, friendly and safe environment. The girls are introduced to basic movement and soccer skills, as well as the fundamental rules of the game. The programme is delivered by fully qualified FAI coaches and Development Officers. The following clubs have participated in the Soccer Sisters Programme in Wicklow- Wolfe Tone F.C., Arklow Town F.C. and Greystones Utd.
