“This campaign is a significant step towards empowering young girls and promoting women’s football in Kenya,” Mwendwa said. “We understand that young girls face many challenges in their quest to pursue their dreams, and that is why we have partnered with FIFA to create this campaign. We believe that by creating awareness, we can inspire more young girls to take up football and empower them to become future champions.”
According to the Federation, the program will primarily focus on players and school team coaches from primary schools.
Recognizing that students spend a significant amount of their time in school, special attention will be given to capacity building among school team coaches. This ensures that players receive proper football education from an early stage, enabling their growth into potential future professionals.
