It's a great opportunity for ladies (from the ethnic minority) in Manchester to volunteer and then attain a sports qualification to teach/coach the girls and ladies (from the ethnic minority) sports and physical activities which Alhilal will continue to run for the community. If you just want to volunteer, that is possible too.
This is all thanks to & who made it happen for us at by believing in us and supporting us all the way. ๐
Also great support from Leigh who helped our coaches get trained to L1 and soon theyโll be embarking on L2.๐ช๐ฝ๐ช๐ฝ๐
