For the first time ever, GIRLS ONLY Summer Footy is happening!

The Hibiscus Coast Football Club are excited to invite girls-only teams from Years 1 – 13 to sign up to their Girls Only Summer Football.

Girl’s Summer Footy at Hibiscus Coast FC is about getting girls to enjoy playing football in a social, fun, and safe environment. Scores are not recorded, and there are no playoffs!

This format encourages girls to try new things, have fun with their friends, and develop real enjoyment from playing football. The aim is to foster confidence and resilience in girls with a mission to prioritise a positive growth mindset over winning.

✅ We want them to make mistakes so that they learn from them and embrace the spirit of trying.
✅ We want them to celebrate when they score and congratulate the other team if they score too.
✅ We want them to enjoy it – they might ‘want’ to win, but they don’t ‘need to’ to have fun.

There are only six places available per combined year group (e.g. Year 7 -8 age group), so don’t delay signing up so that we can get our teams together!

Refunds:

Students will not be permitted to be placed in a team unless they have registered and paid or paid their deposit & started making AP payments first.
If a student doesn’t make a side due to lack of numbers to make a complete team, their fees will be reimbursed, however, fees will not be reimbursed to students who don’t make their choice of team in their chosen code or who no longer want to play and who then choose to withdraw.  Once the teams are made up, if a child pulls out it can leave a team short, cause players to be swapped about in teams and a lot of work administratively both at school and at association level.
Exceptional circumstances – If games are cancelled due to extreme circumstances e.g. Covid we will refund any money we receive back from the sporting organisations and any costs not already paid out at the KingsWay end.
