Girls Are Leaving.
This Is Why.

🧠

Different Minds

Girls process feedback, social dynamics, and pressure differently to boys. A coaching style built for boys will miss her entirely.

💪

Different Bodies

Puberty, ACL risk, hormonal cycles — girls' physical development follows a completely different timeline. Coaches need to know this.

👥

Different Motivations

Girls stay in sport for connection, identity, and belonging. Coaching that ignores this loses them — quietly, and for good.

📋

A System That Hasn't Caught Up

FA coaching education is improving — but the gap between what it covers and what girls need is still wide. Her Game Guide fills it.

Girls are not leaving because they stop loving the game. They are leaving because something in their experience of it stops working for them.
Her Game Guide — Core Purpose

"Finally a resource that actually talks about coaching girls as girls — not just a repackaged boys' manual. I wish I'd had this when I started."

Sarah M. — Grassroots Coach, U10 Girls
