After getting so much love from the women following me on TikTok and Instagram, all eager to join and try the sports I was posting about, something clicked. So many asked where they could play sports like football in a women-only setup, some even wanting to join me next time. It was tough fitting in all those requests, but I was all about motivating them to try new sports and join me. I mean, that's exactly why I was sharing my sports journey openly. And that's the story of how this fantastic community came to be – and guess what, we're just getting started!" - @Aya.allsports

About Me
In June 2021 I Started A Social Media Platform Called Aya.allsports After Facing Some Discrimination In The Expat Sports Community As A Muslim Veiled Woman. I Started The Platform To Change The Mainstream Perception Of Muslim Women Who Choose Modesty But Still Want An Active Lifestyle. I Noticed That The Norm Was That Girls Who Look Like Me Aren't Good Enough Or Shouldn't Be Playing Certain Sports And That Modesty Is A Barrier To Performance, So I Am Determined To Change That Perception By Proving Otherwise. This Is Why I Started Posting My Sports Progress & Journey On Public Platforms And Started My Own Inclusive Sports Communities For Women In Uae.
