DPL ➡️ GIRLS ACADEMY 🐝
An exciting time for our girls program at Suda!
Jada and Marlowe earned the opportunity to train in the Girls Academy Aspire environment at Swarm FC.
As our girls pathway continues to grow, opportunities like this are exactly what we want to see. We want players being challenged, developing in strong environments, and earning the chance to take the next step.
We are excited about what’s ahead for Jada and Marlowe, and even more excited about the direction of our girls program and the opportunities being created for our players.
The real player pathway keeps growing. 🐝
