Cowgirls winning the anti-racist world cup
We’re not just a football team!
As well as playing football, we also have as much fun as possible and are part of a wider network of clubs who recognise all people’s right to equality, irrespective of their age, class, culture, disability, gender, race, religion, or sexuality. We regularly play in football tournaments in the UK and abroad and even organise our own. If this sounds like something you fancy trying out, please join us for a training session to find out more.
