💗⚽ WOW WHAT A DAY FOR GIRLS’ FOOTBALL! ⚽💗

Saturday was all about celebrating the girls in our region at our annual FC Nelson Girls Festival, and what a fantastic day it was! 🙌

It was brilliant to have so many girls together, playing football, making new friends and simply enjoying the game. This year’s Girls Festival brought together teams from FC Nelson, Picton, Tahuna, Nelson Suburbs and Marlborough, along with a couple of Golden Bay girls who joined our FC Nelson Pandas for the day! 🐼💗

We love seeing girls’ football continue to grow across the Nelson/Tasman/Marlborough region, and we’re seeing more and more girls getting involved every term. Days like Saturday are a great reminder of how important it is to create opportunities where girls can play, have fun and feel part of the football community. 🌟

A huge THANK YOU to our amazing event sponsors and supporters:

🙏 MTF Finance Nelson – our fantastic event sponsor
🎟️ Yogis Frozen Yogurt – for providing vouchers for the teams
🌭 's Dog's – for keeping everyone fed
☕️The Shot Mobile Coffee Nelson – for keeping the grown-ups caffeinated!
🍦 Mr Whippy Nelson Tasman – for the lunchtime treats!

And a massive shoutout to our FC Nelson Academy U14 boys – Anthony, Matty and Tommy – who were our fantastic referees for the day. You did an awesome job! 👏

Congratulations to our winners - 10/11th Grade - FC Nelson Galactic Pandas 9000 and 12/13th Grade - Marlborough!!

Finally, a big thank you to Neil, FC Nelson coach and committee member, for all his work helping organise the festival. These events don’t happen without people willing to put in the time behind the scenes, and we really appreciate it. Our FC Nelson girls coaches Neil and Liam are doing an amazing job fostering our Girls Football - thankyou🖤🤍

Here’s to continuing to champion, support and grow girls’ football in our region! 💪⚽💗
