Female Football at Forest Rangers FC
Forest Rangers FC is a friendly and family oriented club that has grown over many years to become one of the largest female soccer clubs within the St George Football Association.
Forest Rangers has female representation at all levels of our club (players, coaches, managers, referees, canteen and committee) and cater for females of all ages and abilities.
FRFC currently have the following team allocations on offer:
- Girls only teams for ages 6 – 11
- Mixed teams (with boys) for ages 5 to 11
- Competition Girls teams from age 12-16
- Women’s teams in several grades including 17-21 years, All Age Women’s and O30s Women’s.
Forest Rangers FC recently appointed George Comninos as their Technical Director for Women’s Football which has enabled the club to develop a structured plan and support program to further improve the football experience for our female players and their coaches.
George’s appointment will also allow for our club to participate in St George forums to further develop and promote female football in our region.
Our Women’s Football program works collaboratively with the St George Football Association and Sydney FC in providing opportunities for our female players to participate in W-League events as well as ‘motivate and inspire’ sessions with well-known Female Football players. The program also offers ‘Coach the Coach’ sessions and opportunities for coaching qualifications.
Common Questions
What day do females play?
Girls teams from the age of 5 to 7 play on Saturday morning. Girls of age 7 to 9 can play on Saturday morning or Sunday morning. All older girls’ teams and women play on Sunday. Mixed teams (girls and boys) from the age of 5 to 11 play on Saturday.
Should my daughter play in the mixed or girls comp?
Up to the age of 11 you can choose the comp that your daughter will enjoy most. Many girls are a lot more confident and get more touches of the ball in an all-girls comp, however, we are always encouraging our girls to have a ruin with boys in their age group too. The rules, fields and cost are exactly the same.
What comps are available for female players 17 and above?
There are three age groups of women’s football for girls 17 and above: U17-21 Girls, All Age Women and O30s Women. U17-21 Girls and All Age Women competitions play on Sunday. The O30s women’s comp plays a reduced season with games scheduled for Friday nights.
