We Play Strong Centres

We Play Strong Centres

UEFA Message: Football is more than just fun. It's what makes us stronger and more confident. And that comes from being with one another, on and off the pitch. UEFA wants every girl to feel welcome to come play, because Together We Play Strong.

The Scottish FA have teamed up with UEFA to create a series of further opportunities for girls aged between 12-16 years old to get into the game.

The We Play Strong Centres will work in conjunction with the Scottish FA regional teams to offer after school football sessions for teenage girls with the aim of increasing retention rates and stop players dropping out of playing the game.

The girls’ and women’s game is growing rapidly in terms of numbers and the quality of play displayed on the pitch.

The success of Scotland’s Women’s National Team qualifying for their first ever FIFA Women’s World Cup in 2019 has only enhanced this.

While the club game increases in the number of teams participating and SWNT continue to move up the FIFA World Rankings we know there are thousands of girls out there who want to play and enjoy the game in a relaxed, enjoyable and semi-regular playing format.

If that is you, then #WePlayStrong is for you. Have a look to see if your school has a #WePlayStrong centre and if not, tell your teachers to get in touch with your regional Scottish FA office for more info.
