Tribal FC
Reason for nomination:
I joined Tribal FC just under 3 years ago after messaging them on a whim after coming across their Instagram, and it turned out to be the best thing I've ever done! It is a club full of passionate and inspirational people who strive week in, week out, to ensure the club is a safe and fun space for women & non-binary players. Despite experiencing the many barriers that grassroots clubs often face, including lack of funding or suitable available pitch space, the club has grown from strength to strength and has solidified itself as a welcoming community for players of all ages and abilities in South West London. Tribal FC is run and supported by a few volunteers who dedicate their spare time into ensuring the club can continue to be there for its players, and all of this is held up by the backbone of the club, our founder Lene, who built this community from scratch and has invested so much of her own time and money into making Tribal FC the incredible club it is today. Joining the club has had such a positive impact to my life and I would love the club to have the visibility and support to continue to grow to allow others to experience the same.
