⭐🎾🏅Countesthorpe Academy – Empowering Our Girls Through Sport🏅🎾⭐

⭐⚽🏓Empowering Our Girls Through Sport!

💪🏅A group of our students recently took part in an inspiring GALs Day at Huncote Leisure Centre, where they trained as GALs Ambassadors! The day focused on understanding the barriers to female participation in sport and physical activity, equipping our students with the skills to create an action plan to encourage more girls to get involved.

🤸‍♂️🌟A highlight of the day was meeting British gymnast Becky Downie, who shared her incredible journey and motivated our students to drive positive change.

🏓✨Our newly trained ambassadors are now working on ways to promote girls’ sport within our school – watch this space for exciting initiatives!

⭐⭐⭐Thank you to the staff at the South Leicestershire School Sports Partnership and the Youth Sports Trust for organising the day!
