2024 Women's and Girls Teams

2024 Women's and Girls Leagues

Season 2024 will look a little different from previous years. With an increase in the demand for Women's and Girls football generated from the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup, Football SA looks to add U8 Girls, U10 Girls and U12 Girls leagues. At Sturt Lions, we see this as an incredible opportunity to further develop the Girls game.
