On Saturday 15th October 2022, we held a women's football festival for women and non-binary clubs, and small-sided teams.

Seven teams from across London joined us for a day of football in the sun, with a number of teams and players getting their first experience of  playing 11-a-side football.

There was a great atmosphere throughout the day, with plenty of competition, yet players also helping each other to develop and learn as they played a new format.

The teams who participated were; Alexandra Park Women, Bow Belles FC, Down Lane United, Norsemen FC, Peaches FC, PCWAFC and Vibe FC.

Thank you to Norsemen FC for hosting us, and Natalie and Olivia for refereeing.

In keeping with the spirit of the day, teams remained at the ground enjoying some food and drink, and exchanging stories about the beautiful game.

We will be holding further festivals throughout the remainder of the 22/23 season.

If you are interested in taking part in the next festival or would also like more information on 11-a-side football, please email Samantha on samantha.brown@amateur-fa.com
