The BE. Football Mentoring Programme aims to build the confidence of women aged 18+ who are actively working or volunteering in football and want to progress in their careers.
Mentees include those who are interested in starting their first job in football or those looking to progress to a more senior role on or off the pitch. During the nine months, the mentees are paired with a mentor best suited to their field of work and future aspirations.
There are three face-to-face contact days where the cohort comes together to share experiences and learn from the best in the industry which has included UEFA Vice President, Laura McAllister, Former Cymru international Helen Ward and Liesel Jolly the Women’s Football Lead at Visa as well as other influential women in the industry.
The programme, now in its third year is incredibly successful with many of the mentees going on to secure full-time roles at the FAW or elsewhere in football.
Applications for year 4 are open now until Friday 14th March 2025.
