Depending on ability and time a player can commit to playing football, female players aged 9-12 (Grades 9-12) can choose to play in either girls only teams or mixed (70% boys) teams following either the Social or Academy pathway, with the option to change teams / pathways each season.
Social pathway provides the opportunity for players to play in teams largely based on player preferences (e.g. play with specific friends, in a previous team, etc) and with a commitment to 1x training per week plus a game. Players may also choose to register and attend Skill Centre training as a 2nd weekly training.
Academy pathway provides opportunities for players who are highly motivated and committed to training 2x per week with teams formed based on abilities, commitment and motivation. Players following this pathway must be able to commit to 2 training sessions a week (1 team training plus a Skills Centre session) plus a game (played across Auckland), and must attend Player ID sessions (mixed teams) or muster day(s) (for girls only teams) in February to be considered for an Academy Team.
