Mya Imani: “I love developing players”

This International Women’s Month, we’re highlighting the amazing work our staff do within the Community department at Arsenal. Today we hear from Mya Imani, who speaks about her coaching ambitions, why Serena Williams is an inspiration and how she’s seeing the impact of Arsenal Women’s growth on a local level.

What is your job and what does it entail?

I am currently involved as a sessional community coach with the Arsenal Premier League Kicks programme. This role entails working with fellow coaches to deliver engaging projects for children in the local community and schools. I particularly enjoy attending sessions and getting involved with the participants, whether we’re discussing football or other topics.
