Girls join #HERGAMETOO initiative

29th December 2022

As part of our ongoing mission to promote equality for girls and those who identify as women, we have become ambassadors for the #HERGAMETOO initiative. 

About #HERGAMETOO

HerGameToo are a group of female supporters who are passionate about football and working to eradicate sexism in the football industry. We want women and girls of all ages to feel confident and safe sharing their opinion about football both online and in real life without fear of sexist abuse.

What being an ambassador means

Ambassadors are a voluntary team of self-identifying women who represent #HerGameToo across a number of different football clubs.

Our committee members will;

  • Champion equality for girls, especially those from underrepresented backgrounds
  • Attend local #HerGameToo events/dedicated fixtures
  • Be a point of contact for other fans or members experiencing sexism at our club
  • Regularly report back to the #HerGameToo team about how our club is doing

We need our members and their families to help us with this initiative by reporting any sexist behaviour you witness at the club to our welfare team.

We’re also interested to hear from members who are interested in supporting and championing this initiative with us at the club. Please contact our welfare team to chat about how you can help.
