      Grassroot Football coach

      I was a dedicated girls' football coach with a purpose beyond the field. I leveraged the talents of my players not only for athletic success but also to secure support for their education. Through strategic partnerships with generous donors like SAKI, we have facilitated access to school fees and provided free sanitary pads, ensuring that these talented youngsters can pursue their education unhindered.Description of major activities:1. Developing and implementing training sessions focused on skill development and tactical understanding.2. Providing guidance and mentorship to the girls to enhance their individual and team performance.3. Organizing and coordinating team practices, matches, and tournaments.4. Fostering a positive and supportive environment to promote player growth and enjoyment of the sport.5. Educating the players and community about menstrual poverty and hygiene through workshops and awareness campaigns.6. Instilling values such as discipline, teamwork, and perseverance through sport, which extend beyond the pitch and positively impact the girl's lives off the field.7. During the COVID-19 pandemic, my role expanded to serve as a crucial support system for the girls. I emphasized the importance of mental health and well-being, offering a safe space for them to express their concerns and providing encouragement during challenging times.8. We were recognised by two organisations in the UK, Arsenal Football Club and World-remit. Out of 2,400 entries, we were nominated in the WorldRemit and Arsenal Future Stars program. I was among the 4 finalist grassroot football coaches worldwide who were positively impacting their community. Show less
