We are delighted to announce that we will become an approved SSE Wildcats Centre commencing this April, providing football opportunities for 5-11 year-old girls.
The initiative offers organised sessions in a fun and engaging environment created exclusively for girls.
Ilminster Town Youth FC Wildcats Girls’ Football sessions will be taking place on a weekly basis, on Saturdays provide a safe environment where girls can try football for the first time.
The initiative aims to inspire girls to engage with football, meet new friends, develop fundamental skills, learn new things and create the foundation for a lifelong love of football.
Ilminster Town Youth FC Wildcats Centre will be run in conjunction with the Somerset County FA, utilising qualified coaches.
SSE Wildcats has been established in partnership with SSE, supporters of girls’ football participation and sponsor of the SSE Women’s FA Cup, with support from UEFA, FIFA and the Youth Sport Trust.
