Her Full Game

Coaching girls at Under-14 to Under-16 — the full 11v11 game

“The full game. The full person. The full responsibility.”

>50%
Of girls 11–17 never wear a sports bra during sport (Scurr et al. 2016)
~32%
Fewer injuries with FIFA 11+ warm-up (Soligard 2008, girls 15–16)
~70
Emerging Talent Centres across England — ages 8–16
Coach Note
Research consistently shows that girls at 14–16 understand tactical concepts at the same level as boys of the same age. Lower tactical performance in mixed environments is explained by confidence suppression, not cognitive difference. Coach to ability, not assumption.
