Women and girls football survey
We’re transforming King George V Playing Fields in Bloxwich. This work is part of a £25 million Town Deal programme to improve the area. Over the next year we’ll upgrade the site to create better playing fields and sports facilities.
Planned works
As part of the upgrade, we have planning permission for a 3G (third generation artificial grass) football pitch. This includes:
- goals catering for 11, 7 and 9 a-side games
- fully fenced enclosure
- floodlighting
- storage facilities
As part of proposals to develop the new 3G astro football pitch, we are seeking feedback directly from girls and women about how they currently participate in football, what barriers exist, and what facilities, sessions or support would encourage more girls and women to play, train and get involved in football locally.
We want to understand the current demand for girls’ and women’s football within the local area and identify what would help increase participation and access to football opportunities.
Your feedback will help shape future football opportunities, facility provision and programming at the site, while supporting future funding applications and the long-term development of girls’ and women’s football within the community.
This questionnaire is for women and girls to complete, regardless of your participation or interest in playing football.
