We are determined to support more women and girls to get active and football is the most popular team sport in terms of participation for women and girls.<\/p>
The Lionesses\u2019 fantastic performance at the 2022 Women\u2019s Euros has inspired the nation and it is essential that we take the opportunity to build on the success and legacy of the tournament. This includes Sport England\u2019s investment in 2020 of £1 million into legacy groups to help develop and create recreational women\u2019s football opportunities in each of the nine host cities up and down England. It also includes the Sport England Adult Recreational Football Project, which is led by seven recreational football officers across the country who will develop this area of the game over the next two years.<\/p>
We will continue to invest in grassroots sport through Sport England funding. In April 2022, Sport England awarded a total of £199,562 in 169 organisations to start new grassroots women\u2019s and girls\u2019 teams in high Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) areas. Sport England has also committed over £26 million until 2027 to support the FA\u2019s aim to harness the power of grassroots football to unite communities and improve the health of the nation.<\/p>
We are also focused on supporting the future development of women\u2019s and girl\u2019s football, and inspiring the next generation. The recently announced Women\u2019s Football Review will look at how to deliver bold and sustainable growth of the women\u2019s game at elite and grassroots level.

The Lionesses\u2019 fantastic performance at the 2022 Women\u2019s Euros has truly inspired the nation with a record breaking crowd of over 87,000 attending the final and 23.3m UK viewers tuning into the BBC\u2019s coverage. It is essential that we take the opportunity to capitalise on and build on the success and legacy of the tournament and the team to secure a long lasting and sustainable future for the women\u2019s game.<\/p>
To raise the profile of facilities in the UK, and to commemorate the Lionesses, the Football Foundation is working with facility owners to name pitches/facilities in towns and cities that have a strong link to each tournament winning squad member. We will also continue to invest in grassroots sport to bring on the next generation of Lionesses and continue to work with the Department for Education to ensure girls have equal access to sports. The Prime Minister and the DCMS Secretary of State were delighted to meet the Lionesses earlier this month who are extraordinary ambassadors for sport. They reconfirmed their commitment to reviewing the barriers to girls accessing two hours of PE.<\/p>
The recently announced Women\u2019s Football Review will look at how to deliver bold and sustainable growth of the women\u2019s game at elite and grassroots level.

Each year, the government invests £18 million into community sport facilities via the Football Foundation, alongside the English Football Association and the Premier League. A further £21 million was invested in England in 2021/22, supporting a range of projects to deliver improved facilities in deprived areas, support multi-sport use and increase participation among currently under-represented groups including women and girls and disabled players. The Government has committed another £205 million between 2022 and 2025, with plans for this investment due to be announced in the Autumn.<\/p>
We are working with the FA to build on the momentum created by the Women's Euros to ensure there is a legacy of growth in women and girls, including 500,000 new football opportunities to engage women and girls across the nine host cities by 2024, and 20,000 more women playing for fun across the country. To raise the profile of facilities in the UK, and to commemorate the Lionesses, the Football Foundation is working with facility owners to name pitches/facilities in towns and cities that have a strong link to each tournament winning squad member.<\/p>

The Government is absolutely committed to supporting girls\u2019 sport at every opportunity including pushing for greater participation. The Government is looking forward to hosting the rescheduled women\u2019s UEFA European Championships in 2022. The tournament's National Promotion Programme will help to deliver on the Football Association\u2019s commitment to ensure equal access for all girls to play football in school and clubs.<\/p>
Other activities to inspire more women and girls to take up the sport include signposting to women\u2019s and girls\u2019 participation opportunities, a pre-tournament nation-wide \u2018activity\u2019 challenge for all ages and backgrounds and a pre-tournament host city Roadshow. In addition, as part of the Spending Review, £205 million of funding for grassroots football and multi-sport facilities was announced, which will help to contribute to ensuring girls across the country have the football facilities they need in their community, including in schools.<\/p>
