NoFo 219 - UKAL Takes the Lead: Inside the Girls Weekend Away

This week on the November Foxtrot Podcast, we’re excited to welcome the organisers of UK Airsoft Ladies (UKAL) to talk about their unique, empowering event: Girls Weekend Away (GWA). Designed by women, for women, this June’s three-day weekend provides an immersive airsoft experience - complete with rental kit, camping, and a social atmosphere centered on inclusivity. We’ll delve into what makes GWA special: it features a dedicated Girls vs Girls game, mixed Sunday play welcoming all participants, plus a fun Friday-night social. It’s more than just firing BBs - it’s a space for support, camaraderie, and celebration of female airsofters. Beyond describing the games, we’ll explore the event’s roots in the UKAL mission - to create a comfortable, empowering environment for women in a predominantly male sport. Our guests will share insights into the planning, the atmosphere, and their vision for women’s participation going forward. Tune in to hear about the incredible success of the first Girls Weekend Away - featuring friendship, fun, and foaming mags - and learn how upcoming events aim to push empowerment and community even further.
