The Women's Gridiron Foundation offers mentorship and multi-level support to both existing and start-up girls football organizations.

We run in-person skills clinics,  provide various resources, and connect you with others who aim to close the gender gap in the sport of American football (flag and tackle). 

We educate and empower young women around the world to a place of greater self-worth and confidence while simultaneously increasing awareness of, and participation in, the women's game on a global scale. 

We believe that sport - specifically football - is an ideal vehicle through which essential, meaningful life skills can be learned.
When a safe, supportive space is created in which females of all ages can learn this incredible game, they will not only show up, but be empowHERed for having done so!!
