Girls on the Move groups are new low-threshold sports hobby groups established for the 2026-2027 season, intended only for girls aged 9-16, where no prior knowledge is required and no own equipment is needed. The instructors plan the content of the activities to suit everyone, involving children and young people.

In the groups, half of the activity time is dedicated to floorball, while the other half consists of various other physical activities. Girls are actively involved in planning the content of the activities.

The Girls Get Moving project is supported by the City of Helsinki, which has helped keep the participation fee affordable. The groups are open to all girls, and we especially welcome girls from immigrant backgrounds to join us and get active.

In the exercises, the activities are divided into separate age groups, e.g. 9-12 years and 13-16 years, if the number of participants allows it.

There are two group options available: one in Tapanila and the other in Myllypuro. If desired, the girl can be enrolled in both groups, in which case the same fee will be charged separately for each group.

GROUPS:

Tapanilan Sports Center Mosahalli, Erätie 3, 00730 Helsinki
Fridays 17:00-18:00 Mosahalli lower court (2). REGISTER TO THIS GROUP.

Arena Center Myllypuro, Alakiventie 2, 00920 Helsinki
Tuesdays 18:00-19:00 court 3. REGISTER TO THIS GROUP.

Registration:
Registration is now open. Register by clicking on the link next to the group place you want. On the page that opens, select the group you want and register through the myClub system. The child’s name will be entered as a participant in the member information, because the child is a member of the club. The parents’ information is entered under guardians. If you have difficulties using the myClub registration system due to language barriers, please contact our office by email at toimisto@eraviikingit.fi.

Those who participated in the fall do not need to register again for the spring, but the activities will continue throughout the season. However, if you wish to cancel your participation in the spring after the fall, you must do so by canceling your participation before the start of the spring season. Cancellations of trial sessions or the spring season must be made in writing by email (toimisto@eraviikingit.fi).

Trial sessions:
If you are unsure about your child’s desire to participate, it is possible to try our groups a maximum of two times without payment obligation during the first hours of the group (or the next two times from the time of registration). However, everyone must register normally and if after 1-2 times you want to stop, you must notify our office in writing without delay. If no cancellation has been made, the invoice submitted is valid. We will not refund the payment for cancellations made during the fall or spring season if the group has participated more times than the number of trial sessions.

Instructors:
Girls on the Move groups are led by professional individuals who work as professional coaches or physical education instructors at EräViikingit. The goal is that at least one of the instructors in these groups is a woman.

Equipment needed:
Girls come to practice in sportswear of their choice and bring a water bottle. Each participant needs indoor shoes. All other equipment and gear will be provided by the club. If you have your own floorball stick and goggles, you can use your own equipment.

Price:
Participants in the Girls on the Move groups only need to pay the club’s recreational membership fee of €60 for the autumn season (September–December). For the spring season (January–May), the participation fee is also €60.

The fee includes one child’s participation in the sessions, the child’s insurance coverage, training equipment, practice bibs, and instruction during the sessions. By paying the recreational membership fee, the child also becomes a member of the club and is entitled to member benefits. If you would like to participate in both weekly groups, the participation fee is €60 per group for each term (autumn and spring).

ERVI Support Fund for Low-Income Families:
EräViikingit has its own support fund, the ERVI Fund, which provides financial assistance for participation fees to families with limited financial means. Participants registered for the Girls on the Move groups may apply for financial assistance for the autumn season until September 8, 2026. During registration, you can indicate that you require financial support, and we will send you the application form by email. By submitting an application, a low-income family may be eligible for completely free participation.

Start/end dates and exceptions:
Possible cancellations, exception times and the first and last training days of the autumn/spring season for groups are visible in myClub for each group. We will also send a separate announcement about them to participants at the beginning of the season, which can also be found in myClub’s announcements. Log in to myClub, for example, from the home page of our website or from this link. If you have forgotten your login details, you can order new ones yourself or contact our office.

Please note that when ordering a jersey, you must definitely enter the jersey size in your child’s member information and when ordering a racket, the child’s height.

Involving children and young people in planning:
Before the start of the autumn and spring seasons, guardians of those who have registered will receive a survey by email, asking in advance about the wishes of the children and young people regarding the content. In addition, from the first class of the autumn and spring seasons, the instructor will spend time with the young people in a planning session, where the wishes of the participants are reviewed and everyone is involved in planning the upcoming season.

The instructors will prepare the content of the exercises for the operating season based on these wishes.
