Our Activities

Athena Glasgow Women and Girls Academy provides diverse activities centred around football and personal growth. Their football programmes cater to various age groups, from under-11s to under-18s, offering training sessions and competitive matches. In addition to football, the Athena Glasgow Youth Experience Programme partners with local businesses and organisations to deliver activities that help players develop essential life skills. Participants completing these activities earn the Athena Glasgow Champion Award, celebrated at the end-of-season awards night.

The academy also emphasises recreational football, ensuring a safe and inclusive environment for all participants. The Youth Experience Programme features six annual activities, focusing on the development of various skills. These initiatives aim to empower girls and women not only in sports but also in their personal and professional lives, promoting holistic growth through community engagement and skill-building opportunities.
