Partnerships
Girls Academy Partnership
The Girls Academy League is proud to announce its partnership with Female Footballers, a leader in educating and empowering athletes through mental performance skills, mentorship and leadership development.
"The Female Footballers are committed to raising awareness around mental health," said Patricia Hughes Commissioner of the Girls Academy. "Our organizations are perfectly aligned to work together with a shared commitment to mental health and emotional well-being."
"We are thrilled to partner with the Girls Academy to bring mental performance training to such a high-level group of athletes," commented Kassie Gray, Founder & Executive Director of the Female Footballers.
"Social emotional development is vital and just as important as the technical, tactical and physical side of the sport, and we're excited to help empower these young women to be the best versions of themselves -- as players and as people.”

They help provide consultation on the acquisition and implementation of mental tools that lead to the development of mental skills to support the athlete in performing at their best, on and off the field of play. Our partnership includes a personalized referral form.
Sideline Project
The Sideline Project is a movement to improve youth sports sidelines and we are proud to partner with The Sideline Project to make youth sports better. We partnered with The Sideline Project Course so that while our female athletes gain more mental skills in our mentorship programs, their parents can add additional support for their daughter through taking the Sideline Project Course. Once taken, parents can add their name to the virtual pledge wall. Information about your access to The Sideline Project Course will be emailed to parents after the Mentorship Program gets underway. This is a free course that comes with our mentorship program registration! Sideline Project is a course designed by Skye Eddy Bruce at Soccer Parenting.
