Barclays Girls’ Football School Partnership
We have teamed up with the FA and the Youth Sport Trust to be part of the national Barclays Girls’ Football School Partnerships (BGFSP) programme. The aim of the partnership is to grow girls football and support the FA vision that every girl has equal access to football in school by 2024. We will be working closely with the FA to bring girls in South Cambs schools more opportunities to get involved. We want to build on the success of the Lionesses in the Euros and World Cup, using this platform to inspire more girls in South Cambridgeshire to play football.
As a partnership we will have a focus on:
- curricular and extra-curricular provision (including teacher training and CPD)
- leadership
- competition
- links to opportunities in the community
The Vision –every girl has equal access to football in school by 2024.

What is #LetGirlsPlay?
By 2024, The FA’s vision is for girls to have the same football opportunities as boys in schools and clubs. #LetGirlsPlay is a campaign to influence and drive change, showing that football can and should be played by girls. It is bringing together a growing community of people of all genders, ages and backgrounds who want to champion equal access for girls, helping create independent, resilient young girls who will be a force for good in all local communities.
