LFC Foundation celebrates International Day of the Girl

Founded by the UN in 2012, International Day of the Girl is celebrated annually on October 11 and the occasion aims to highlight and address the needs and challenges that girls face, while promoting girls’ empowerment and the fulfilment of their human rights.

This year’s theme is GirlForce: Unscripted and Unstoppable – supporting all girls to amplify their voices and stand up for their rights.

LFC Foundation will host a special 9v9 GirlForce football tournament at Anfield Sports and Community Centre (ASCC) this evening, which will see Premier League Kicks Girls participants from different sessions across Liverpool come together for an hour of competitive football.
