about us

Empower is home to people who want to empower women through sport. We are an open-age girls' football academy. We believe in potential and hard work.

​

Football teaches us to be humble, kind and disciplined. We aspire to teach life skills on the field through communication, teamwork, respect, and inclusion. We dream to instill a lifelong love of football in our athletes by raising their physical literacy and making them aware of their physical, mental, and emotional well-being.

More About Me & My Philosophy > > >

My coaching philosophy is in the form of a promise:

"I promise to show my players what they can be before what they are. I promise to put my players before myself. I promise to treat my players as people before they are players." - Farida Salem
