With the introduction of junior girls football at East Geelong Football & Netball Club in 2023 we started our journey in providing a pathway for all our junior girls to continue to play football at East Geelong.  We have always had junior and youth girls at the club, but have had to let them go at U14 level to other clubs with specific youth girls teams.

In 2023 and 2024 the club fielded two teams, U10 and U12.  We are looking to grow this in 2025 to include U14 as well.

We are now very proud to announce we are signatories to the Women and Girls Football Charter.  East Geelong is now the second club within the region to make this commitment.  

The Women & Girls Community Football Charter is a commitment from Community Football Leagues, Clubs & Umpire Groups to work towards making Community Football environments welcoming, safe and inclusive for Women & Girls. This charter sets out the expectation that associations will champion women and girls guided by four principles; opportunity, visibility, access and, investment.

The Club has produced an Action Plan to continue to grow and develop our junior girls program.
