Women’s Training Commences – 9 February
February 6, 2023
In 2023 OIGFC will launch its Womens’ program in the ambition of fielding a womens’ team in the VAFA competition.
Training will be every Tuesday and Thursday commencing at 6:15pm and concluding at 7:15pm. For the most part, training will take place at Chelsworth Park, with the occasional session taking place in the new Sports Centre at Ivanhoe Grammar School.
To field a team, the Club will require in the vicinity of 30 women to sign up – so we need all members of the OIGFC community to get behind this program and promote its values to all potential players in their social orbit. In the interim, the squad will be coached by long time IGS staff member and OIGFC President Chris Branigan.
Community Focussed, Inclusive, Supportive, Healthy

September 25, 2023Hi,
Is this happening in 2024? Do you have to be an alumnus to participate? Am looking for women’s teams (in football, soccer, cricket… anything!) and finding it shockingly under-serviced.
Cheers?

Yes we absolutely plan on having a women’s team in 2024 – and you don’t have to be an alumnus to play with us!
Further details will be published on socials in the coming months, however if you have any queries in the meantime please reach out to Sienna Whiteman on 0437 444 340.
