New and existing female football volunteers are being invited to one of three identical events which are designed to help support their development.

The Kent FA will be hosting the same event on the same day, covering the same topics at venues in Ditton, Dartford and Deal. The event takes place on Friday, March 11.

Kent FA chair Denise Richmond felt an event to help support women in football was necessary in the county.

She said: “We do have good male supporters but there is nothing better than women to support each other and help each other to grow and develop.”

The free event is aimed at existing volunteers and new ones that may be interested in getting involved and supporting their local club.

This followed the inaugural networking event that took place in September, supported by Eighth Wonder, a programme aiming to help create female football leaders.

Each event will welcome speakers from three key disciplines across football: coaching, refereeing and leadership, providing attendees with an opportunity to ask questions, learn and be inspired.

The venues are at the Kent FA headquarters in Ditton, Dartford Football Club and Deal Town Football Club from 7pm-8.30pm on the same evening.

Organisers promise a “fantastic evening where you will meet like-minded women who are equally as passionate about grassroots football in Kent”.
