In a move towards eliminating sexism from the world of football, Head In The Game (HITG) has joined forces with Her Game Too to launch a powerful campaign aimed at promoting gender equality and inclusivity in the beautiful game. This exciting partnership marks a significant step forward in the ongoing struggle to end sexism in football.
One of the cornerstones of this initiative is the collaboration between Head In The Game and Margate FC to provide women’s mental health football sessions in Margate. These sessions are not only a fantastic opportunity for women to engage in the sport they love but also serve as a vital platform to address the mental health challenges often faced by female football enthusiasts.
Margate FC’s partnership with HITG demonstrates their commitment to using football as a means to foster mental well-being among women. By creating a safe and supportive environment for female footballers to come together, HITG and Margate FC are making strides towards reducing the stigma surrounding mental health and women’s participation in the sport.
Matt Witts, COO of Head In The Game, expressed his enthusiasm about this collaboration, stating, “At Head In The Game, we firmly believe that football can be a catalyst for positive change. Our partnership with Her Game Too exemplifies our dedication to eradicating sexism in the game. We are thrilled to work alongside like-minded organisations to challenge stereotypes and promote inclusivity.”
Her Game Too, a prominent advocate for gender equality in football, is equally enthusiastic about the partnership. Together, HITG and Her Game Too plan to leverage their resources, platforms, and collective passion to tackle sexism head-on. Their mission is clear: to create an environment where women and girls can participate in football without fear of discrimination, harassment, or unequal treatment.
This collaborative effort between Head In The Game and Her Game Too symbolises a beacon of hope for the footballing community, emphasising that there is no room for sexism in the sport. With continued dedication and collective action, the campaign aims to inspire change not only within football but across society as a whole.
As the partnership between Head In The Game and Her Game Too unfolds, it promises to redefine the landscape of football by fostering inclusivity, breaking down barriers, and ultimately creating a game where everyone is welcome and valued.
Together, we can kick sexism out of football and make the beautiful game truly beautiful for all.
