WOMEN who want to set up their own girls football teams are being invited to sign up for a free training course.
The West Essex School Sports Partnership and The Essex Women’s and Girls FA will run the pre-level one coaching course on Wednesday 3 February between 9.30am and 4pm.
A council spokesman said: "The course aims to give participants an understanding of best practice in relation to running school or junior club teams and player development, as well as understanding player development and pupil learning and the contribution that being part of a school or junior club team can make to these areas, as well as many practical and technical skills.
"If there is enough of a take up of this course, the partners wish to organise an FA level one coaching course in the near future for women only."
The one-day course will be held at Upper Clapton Rugby Club, Thornwood, Epping.
