Are you looking for a fun way for girls 5-11 to get involved with football? Then look no further! Weetabix Wildcats is the place to be, everyone is super awesome; from the friends you’ll meet to the FA qualified coaches and volunteers who deliver the sessions.

What is Weetabix Wildcats?

It’s non-competitive football for girls who want to give it a go for the very first time or want to play with other girls their own age. Most importantly, Weetabix Wildcats is all about having loads of fun and meeting new amazing friends.

Guisborough Town Weetabix Wildcats sessions are held every week at the Laurence Jackson Sports Village which are focused on helping girls make friends, have fun and be active through football. Sessions are delivered by our FA qualified coaches providing a safe place for girls to try football for the first time and develop key football skills.

How to book on to Weetabix Wildcats sessions

You can book on to our sessions by registering on the GTFC FA Weetabix Wildcats website and selecting a session.

What to wear

Parents, please do not worry about having the latest and expensive football kits. Girls can wear almost anything as long as they feel comfortable and confident so they can get the most out of the session.

Clothing

Your child will be on the move during sessions so we recommend loose and non-restrictive clothing, ideally made of breathable and comfortable fabrics. A t-shirt, leggings or shorts and maybe a jumper to wear for the warm-up and cool-down would be perfect.

If it’s cold, we recommend wearing layers so they can be removed as your child warms up when running around. If it’s hot, lightweight and breathable clothing is perfect and, if the session is taking place outside, a cap for added protection from the sun is a good idea.

Footwear

Your child will be taking part in activities that involve running around a pitch or sports hall as well as kicking a football, so we recommend footwear which is comfortable and protects your daughter’s feet. Sports trainers or the shoes your daughter wears for school sport are ideal. We will advise if football boots are required.

Does my daughter need to bring anything?

We provide all the equipment for the activities, so no need to send your daughter with anything other than a drink, lots of energy and a smile!

My daughter needs some extra help. Can she still come to Weetabix Wildcats?

Yes. We believe that football is for everyone. We want to ensure that every girl has an opportunity to take part and has a great experience. Your local centre can adapt what they do to suit your child. If they need a bit of extra help, a parent, carer or siblings can join them.

Can I come along to watch during the session?

Yes. We encourage parents and carers to stay and watch.
