As the game grows and becomes more diverse, it’s important to make sure that our clubs and facilities are inclusive. With support from expert consultants, we've put together guides to support you in providing a female-friendly off-field environment for your members and guests.
Why is this important?
There are several reasons why you might want to consider making your facility more female-friendly:
-
Improving facilities for women and girls will support the recruitment and retention of female players and members to the club.
-
Improving your social space and toilets can significantly increase revenue to the club through improved events and venue hire bookings, increased social events from existing members, and families of age grade players may be keener to attend and stay at the club.
-
An inclusive social space and high-quality toilets can help the club develop new partnerships in the community, whether this is to increase bookings or to develop sponsorship opportunities, volunteer recruitment, or footfall.
