Fara Williams Instagram – Strong is Beautiful!
Over half of secondary schoolgirls drop out of all sport before the age of 16. Lots of girls quit due to insecurities about their bodies during puberty.
That’s why I’m supporting @bluebella lingerie’s #StrongIsBeautiful campaign to get more girls back into sport.
I’ve seen first hand that there is a big drop off in women’s football around the age of 13. I have coached girls at that age and their bodies are changing so quickly and you can see that they really struggle with that. Often girls come back after the six week summer break and during that time they had gone through a major transition into young women, looking different and feeling different. They struggle with what their body is changing into and often just want to cover up, and sometimes don’t want to put on a football kit and be more visible.
Let’s educate from a young age about the changes girls experience and how we can support them to feel more comfortable and confident when they play sport.
