Goal Scorers: Empowering Girls through the Magic of Soccer

The mission of our allies Goleadoras is to recruit tens of thousands of girls between the ages of 10 and 15 in Soccer-5 teams. A cohort of volunteer coaches aged 18-25 will advise, support and lead the weekly training sessions and the monthly league.

The result? Achieve real change in the lives of girls and women through soccer. With each goal, the rules of what is expected of us as women change.

Why Soccer? Football is one of the most pervasive and respected social institutions in the world. Scorers leverage their prestige to change the game for girls across the region.

The technical practice of soccer requires assertiveness without violence, while developing the player’s control and her sense of physical space; its low scores reward patience and perseverance while requiring physical conditioning; his tactical set-up places teamwork at the core, while his on-field free range rewards a balance between creativity and discipline.
