Football Program Protects Girls From Child Marriages in India

In India, football initiatives are providing young girls with alternatives to arranged child marriages, offering them education, community support, and pathways to independence.

Football programs across India are creating safe spaces for young girls, where they can develop skills, build confidence, and access education that helps them resist societal pressures toward early marriage.

Through these initiatives, girls are not only learning sports but also gaining life skills, financial literacy, and support networks that empower them to make their own choices about their futures.
