Football For Girls Africa (FGA)

Who We Are

The True Spirit Of Football

Football for Girls Africa (FGA) is a social-impact project initiated by Brila Media, aimed at empowering young girls across Africa, starting from Nigeria, through football. The project seeks to close the significant gender gap in the football industry by providing girls with the skills, knowledge, and opportunities to pursue diverse careers within the football ecosystem.

By promoting gender equality and fostering leadership skills, FGA prepares the next generation of women in football, ensuring they can confidently step into roles across sports management, media, and beyond.

Background

Background and Rationale

The global sports industry is valued at over $500 billion, yet only 7% of sports bodies are led by women, highlighting a critical gender disparity. In Africa, opportunities for girls in football are limited, with few pathways into professional roles.

Given that women’s sports are projected to generate over $1 billion globally by 2030, there is an urgent need for initiatives like FGA to empower African girls, equipping them with the skills to thrive in this evolving landscape.
