Sophie Hollis, Founder of Inspire Girls Football, Chair of IGF FC, Football Coach, Former Elite Football Player

In this episode, we bring together the world of business and sport, with guest Sophie Hollis, founder of Inspire Girls Football.

I first met Sophie about three years ago, when our daughter Lily went along to one of Sophie’s Inspire Girls football courses. Since then, Lily has attended Inspire Girls Football Camps, as well as goalkeeper training programs.

I’ve also got to know Sophie through her work she is doing with Camberley Town Girls FC, which I am a coach of.

I am truly inspired by Sophie’s journey, her purpose, her energy, and her mission to inspire as many girls as she can. But before we kick-off, a quick background…

Sophie has played football for several elite clubs in and around Surrey and Hampshire. At 17, she gained a full athletic scholarship to play professional college soccer in America. After battling through a long-term injury, she fell in love with coaching, so much so that she decided to create Inspire Girls Football in 2019. She now continues to inspire over 6,000 players across the country. Sophie recently got back from America where she was the head coach for several elite travel teams in New York, New Jersey & Pennsylvania.
