Leadership Summits

Goals for Girls Leadership Summits serve as a unique platform that brings girls from diverse backgrounds together to learn how to be better leaders on and off the pitch. Sessions are taught on the soccer field and in the classroom and focus on inspiring girls to be stronger leaders in their community. All leadership summits include soccer skills development and friendly competitions.

Our summits are structured and focused on our Goals for Girls Values of Individuality, Courage, Growth, and Sisterhood and on four pillars: Awareness, Communication, Teamwork, and Goal Setting.

Depending on the location, we add additional messaging appropriate to the local context that addresses the challenges young women face in their unique communities.

Summits are led by inspiring role models who are experts in various fields and may even be by professional and former professional players.

Personal development, leading a team, and leadership in the community are a part of each summit.

Leadership Summits challenge girls to apply what they have learned to make a difference in their communities by creating “We are the Change” projects. These projects last anywhere between 6 to 12 months and have tackled many community challenges worldwide.
