NFFC GIRLS & WOMEN
EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST
NFFC is thrilled to offer a range of opportunities for girls and women to participate in 2021.
After a series of pilots and discussions throughout 2019 and a total loss of a season in 2020, we were keen to build on the momentum and interest expressed in our community. To this end we have stood up 4 all girls teams in 2021. We have teams at U8 (2), U10 and U11 as well as an all girls MiniRoos Kick Off program. We are committed to fostering an inclusive club, in which females participate in all aspects of our culture and game and are given the same opportunities as the boys.
Unfortunately, we are fully subscribed in our girls teams for 2021. Check back in late September and register for 2022.
