Seasoned Wives / New Wives is a mentoring program designed to pair a “seasoned” coach's wife (mentor) with a “new” wife or one who is newer to the football wife life (mentee). The mentoring program is open exclusively to our membership. See the Membership page for more information.

The AFCWA convention is held every year in conjunction with the AFCA Convention. See the Convention page for more information.

During the convention, the AFCWA offers educational and empowerment sessions, a gathering spot for meeting new women and hanging out with old friends, opportunities to connect with other women who understand the highs and lows of this journey, shopping opportunities for those "one of a kind" unique football items, service opportunities, and much more.
