in the Homeless World Cup, one of only a handful of teams selected to take a male and a female team to participate. Whilst international tournaments were a highlight, SFW was keen to bring its activities to local communities too. SFW ran several inclusion based tournaments in both North Wales (Rhyl) and South Wales (Swansea). Inclusion tournaments were held in September and November 2023, and March 2024 attracted approximately 60 participants per tournament. SFW has continued its strong female sport and representation during this period too, with weekly sessions for women only throughout the year. In November and December 2023, Women only Games Nights were held as the culmination of this project.
