We offer Muslim women the opportunity to train in Islamically approved conditions i.e strictly all female!
We ensure that any sports hall we use is completely sealed off from the public so that we can control who is present.
We don’t just have “kick abouts” we provide Structured Training Sessions so Muslim women can develop their skills & abilities
We provide Fully Qualified, Professional Coaches recommended by the relevant sporting body such as the FA, England Basketball
& Badminton England
and for those with the ambition for more....
We provide the opportunity to Represent Great Britain at the International Women’s Islamic Games!
Unfortunately in the UK though,
it has been a barrier due to a lack of suitable facilities.

Since 2001 the MWSF has trained teams to represent Great Britain at the International Women’s Islamic Games.
These Games, as with the Olympics take place once every 4 years with the difference between them being the conditions in which the events take place.
According to the teachings of Islam, women should be modest in their dress & behaviour especially in public environments where men may be present. This means that for many sports such as football, basketball, athletics, swimming etc... where tight or revealing clothing is worn, Muslim women are restricted from participating.
