The WNFC announced the launch of the “Got Her Back” Program. The program is touted as the leagues signature program Aimed at Inspiring, Supporting, Mentoring, and Defending girls who play football on all-boys teams. The “Got Her Back” program is an open line for parents, friends and allies'​ of girls. The program makes contact with the girls via web, email and phone outreach. “We want to open up a way for people to make us aware of girls who are playing with the boys in our cities. We won't always see the girls physically, but we will do things like give her a direct mentor, pen/text pal and/or someone to call from our teams. The program will begin with the local WNFC team sending a letter of support to the girl, once we learn of her story.” The program is focused on football, but any girl playing for any boys team in any of our cities is eligible for us to... “Have Her Back. The league has received support for the program from existing sponsors Riddell and Adidas. Interested partners, sponsors or media inquiries can be sent to gotherback@wnfcfootball.com. More information will be shared on the program in the coming months. Odessa Jenkins Chief Executive Officer Women’s National Football Conference (WNFC)
