Football Fans In Training For Women

12th April 2016

Football Fans In Training until now has been male orientated.  Dundee United in the Community has secured funding from the SPFL Trust to deliver a women’s only FFIT programme beginning in April 2016. We can accommodate 20 participants at Dundee United FC. Throughout the 13 weeks our qualified coaches will educate and encourage participants to make positive changes to their lifestyles, diet and physical activity with the overall goal being weight loss. Sessions will consist of an hour’s theory followed by a physical activity session which is gradually developed. However, this does not need to be football related and will be tailored to the needs of the group. Since 2010 we have delivered fourteen FFIT programmes to men, and every participant who managed to keep going for 13 weeks lost weight and made positive changes. We now look to offer the same opportunities to our female fan base. The Dundee United Football Fans In Training Programme For Women is scheduled to run from 18 April to 4 of July 2016 every Wednesday from 6pm -7.30pm.
