The Hampshire Girls Youth Football League has become one of the inaugural Flagship Leagues in showcasing England FA's ‘The Greater Game’ initiative. ABOUT GET INVOLVED WHAT IS THE GREATER GAME? In partnership with M&S Food, The Greater Game is a purpose-led programme which uses the power of football to improve the health and wellbeing of young people across the nation. The Greater Game is made specifically for those aged 12-16 years under four key elements: MOVE WELL, THINK WELL, EAT WELL AND SLEEP WELL. Our aim? To inspire all young people to make at least one healthier action per week. A healthier action can be as easy and simple as swapping fizzy drink for water, getting extra hours sleep per night, going for a walk with a friend or family member or spending time planning out the week ahead. Whether a coach, family or young person, check out our resources below and get involved today!

FutureFit is the set of changes that will be introduced into the youth game, marking the new direction for grassroots football form the beginning of the 2026/27 season. As part of the changes, U7 players will move to an exciting 3v3 format, designed to maximise touches, increase engagement, and accelerate player development in a fun, age-appropriate environment.
