FOOTBALL 101 PURPOSE
Football 101 serves a variety of purposes, tailored to meet multiple goals.
1. Football 101 offers female fans an exclusive, behind-the-scenes look into the lives of football players and coaches, allowing them to experience the stadium like never before. The event provides a deeper understanding of the game, from its strategies and objectives to the challenges and physical demands of playing football, creating a truly unique and unforgettable experience.
2. Today women make up half of football fans! This is a great way to show them you appreciate them and want to help educate them even further about the game.
3. With the increase of women in football through refereeing, coaching and reporting/commentating this is a great way to show your commitment to equality within the organization.
