Powerleague Cardiff's campaign celebrates women in football
The initiative aims to celebrate, support, and promote female players across Wales and the UK.
Christian Rose, CEO of Powerleague, said: "This survey confirms what we've long believed, that women and girls in Cardiff and across the UK are not only passionate about football, but ready to play.
"Yet too many still face barriers that simply shouldn't exist.
"At Powerleague, we're committed to breaking those down by creating inclusive, welcoming spaces where everyone can thrive, no matter their background or ability.
"Football should be for everyone, and we're proud to be part of the movement making that a reality."
The campaign also includes a competition inviting women and girls to share their football skills and favourite moments.
Entrants will receive a free off-peak five-a-side pitch voucher and the chance to win one-to-one coaching with freestyle footballer Shannon Ghee.
Powerleague Cardiff will also screen live matches throughout the UEFA Women's Euros, offering fans a safe place to gather while encouraging new audiences to take part in the game.
Shannon Ghee said: "Football has given me confidence, community, and so much joy, and I want every girl and woman to feel that too.
"She's Got Game is about celebrating skill, creativity, and passion, no matter your level.
"Whether you're just starting out or have been playing for years, this is your moment to have fun, and show the world what you've got.
"I encourage everyone across Cardiff to have a go at a trick, or share their favourite football bit, this summer."

EastEnders schedule shake-up sparks 'technical error' as fans spot Jack Branning blunder
EastEnders fans were left baffled during Tuesday's episode as they noticed a blunder due to the ongoing Summer schedule changes taking place due to sporting events EastEnders fans spotted a blunder on DI Jack Branning's (Scott Maslen) work computer during tonight's episode - and it's all down to the schedule changes. Tonight's episode of EastEnders picked up after last night's cliff hanger, in which Ravi Gulati (Aaron Thiara) was arrested by Jack Branning over possession with intent to supply. Today, we saw Ravi being questioned in the police station as Priya's house was searched by the police. However, Ravi wasn't giving in to the officers as he offered "no comment" to all of their questions. Ravi's solicitor then asked for a further private consultation with his client, as the officer in the room was forced to leave the room and suspend the interview. As he left the room, he told his solicitor he needed him to get a message to someone for him - but it was the next part that left fans scratching their heads. The officer questioning Ravi joined Jack outside who was re watching the interview on his computer. "I reckon he's sweating," Jack said about Ravi. The date and time were pinned at the top of Jack's computer, with some eagle-eyed fans noticing the date said 23/7 instead of today's date, 22/7. "This is very particular but did anyone notice Jack's computer date said 23/7?" asked one fan on Reddit. "Defo done before schedule changes came into play." The soap has undergone a number of schedule changes over the summer as huge sporting events including Wimbledon and the UEFA Women's Euros broadcast on the BBC. This week, the soap is undergoing another huge schedule shake-up, as the soap will be taken off air tomorrow night (July 23). This is due to the Women's Euros second semi-final airing on the BBC from 7.30pm tomorrow night, which will see Germany take on Spain for a place in the all important final. To make up for the soap being off air on Wednesday, a double bill aired on Monday, meaning tonight's episode was originally meant to air on Wednesday, hence the date 'blunder'. EastEnders isn't the only soap undergoing schedule changes this week. Emmerdale has been taken off air tonight as the first Women's Euros semi-final, which will see England take on Italy in an attempt to secure their spot in the final. Fans can relax again from next week, as EastEnders will be airing in its usual 7.30pm slot from Monday to Thursday, and as always, will be available to stream on iPlayer from 6am that morning.

Why is Emmerdale not on tonight? Yet more scheduling chaos explained
Emmerdale has once again been taken off air tonight amid schedule changes on ITV. The Yorkshire-based soap has been facing disruption in recent weeks due to the UEFA Women's Euros, and tonight is no different. The Lionesses are just two wins away from retaining their Championship title as they head into the semi-final match this evening. Sporting events throughout the summer have also affected rival soaps Coronation Street and EastEnders, leaving soap fans confused. Here is what you need to know about tonight's changes. Viewers tuning into ITV1 tonight at 7pm will be met with coverage of the England vs Italy football match, which is set to kick off at 8pm. Because of this, Emmerdale has been taken out of its usual 7.30pm slot. Fortunately, the ITV soap will be back on our screens at its usual time tomorrow, where Cain Dingle (Jeff Hordley) is in turmoil. In the episode, Cain struggles in the aftermath of the discovery of Owen's supposed confession, and his emotion leaves John Sugden (Oliver Farnworth) rattled. Viewers will know that John left Owen to die while he forged a suicide note, framing Owen for Nate's murder. As Cain begs Liam Cavanagh (Jonny McPherson) for information on Owen, the doctor refuses to break patient confidentiality, causing Cain to snap. When John hears Liam and Cain discussing the pain of losing a child, he is overwhelmed with guilt for his actions. John reaches out to his usual volunteer at the helpline, but is torn when they suggest a phone call instead of messaging. Elsewhere, Kim Tate (Claire King) is eager to get her hands on Annie's field, but when Robert Sugden (Ryan Hawley) senses her desperation, he refuses to sign.
