Lancaster Women's Football - Inter College

Was wondering if there are any womens inter college football teams or 5 a-side teams?

I don't really want to play for the university :/.

Lol same, i've been smoking for nearly 2 years and stopped playing football like 3 years ago. I used to play in a womens league for the West Midlands. I want to get "fit" again though when I go Lanc. Hopefully enough lass's want to play then we can thrash the other colleges. I was the best at free kicks, hate upfront/goaly defence is the best :biggrin:. Yeah my skill level will not be on par for the uni team, unless they have a 3rd team or something haha.

Aw, I never really got into playing since I was far too chubby then, and there was no school team or local girls team that was my age :rolleyes: Hopefully! That sounds like a lot of fun :smile: Aw, I loved right wing. Anything defensive I suck at hehe. Haha, 4th team for me *cheer*

I know the definitely have boys inter-college ones and I do hope they have girls one as as much as I'm going to see if I'm good enough for the uni team I don't know!! You can never play enough football right, so in an ideal world I'd love to do both :smile:
Hi girls, unfortunately there is no current inter-college women's football, only the main women's team.

There is one 11 a side team for women's football and this year we won our league! :biggrin:

I know of a girl on my course who was unsure of whether to trial for the team or not as she wasn't sure if she would make it, but she is now a member of the team. The trials are held in freshers week, and I'd say even if you're considering it you should give it a go - even if you don't make the cut it's a good chance to play some football.

We are very keen for people who want to make teams at college level to be able to make them, women's football was brought up in Furness a couple of weeks ago but the general consensus was that there wasn't the demand there to get enough people turning up at a college level. If you were to find a few people in your college who were interested in creating a team, the best thing that you could do is talk to the JCR Sports secretaries about that - you'll get introduced to them in freshers week as well - and they'd be able to help you set up a team and send out feelers to other colleges :smile:

I agree!!!
Hi,

Sorry just to Add onto what was said earlier, the college presidents have been discussing setting up a women's league and this is something Furness and Cartmel feel particularly passionately about. Hopefully we will have something set up ready for Freshers week which involves all colleges :smile:

Whichever college you end up joining ask your JCR Exec during Freshers Week :smile:

Hi I'm Bowlands Sports Sec, the most viable way of doing this would be if we could sort something out inter college, whether it be a league or tournament or what ever. This is something we can have a look into in terms of interest and perhaps each college will set up a team early this year.

If not, im sure a non-college based competition can easily be arranged, but again subject to interest.

Regardless, if this (or anything else viable) is something you want to do, pester your college sports secs into making it happen. :smile:
