💗⚽ Our 2027 OFC Female Pathway
At OFC Wāhine, we believe there should be a place for every girl to play, belong and grow — whether she’s kicking a ball for the first time, playing football with her friends, or dreaming of competing at the highest level.
Our 2027 pathway is designed to give girls choice at every stage.

From First Kicks and junior football, through to our U13 and U15 social and development options, and into senior women’s football — girls can find the environment that’s right for their goals, confidence and love of the game.

For players wanting to pursue an elite pathway, we’re proud to work alongside WaiBOP Football and Te Ara Wāhine, providing opportunities from U14 and U16 through to Women’s Premiership and Reserves.
And most importantly, whichever pathway our girls choose, we want OFC to remain a place where they feel connected, supported and valued. 💗

One club. Different pathways. A place for all Wahine.

🌍⚽ OUR VERY OWN GRACE DUNCAN IS WORLD CUP BOUND! 🇳🇿💚
We are incredibly proud to celebrate Grace Duncan, who has been selected to represent New Zealand at the FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup in Poland this September! 🇳🇿✨

To see one of our own stepping onto the world stage is pretty special — and such an inspiration for every young girl at OFC dreaming about where football might take her.
From grassroots football to wearing the fern at a World Cup. 🌿⚽
Grace Duncan the whole OFC Wahine community is behind you. We’ll be cheering loudly from home! 💚

She played. She believed. Now she’s World Cup bound. 🌍

Girls need to see it to believe it. 💗⚽

When girls see women and older girls playing, coaching, refereeing and leading, it changes what they believe is possible for themselves.

And role models don’t always have to be professional players.

Sometimes it’s the 15-year-old coaching an 8-year-old.
The older player who remembers her name.
The female coach standing on the sideline.
The young referee having the confidence to pick up the whistle.

At OFC Wahine, we want to create more of those moments — because football is about so much more than developing great players.

It’s about developing confident girls, friendships, leaders and a sense of belonging.

The more our girls see women and girls having a place at every level of football, the more they'll know:

There’s a place here for me too. 💗

She Plays. She Leads.
Together We Grow.

💗 Meet our inaugural She Plays She Leads cohort!

This weekend we celebrated five incredible young female leaders by taking them to Eden Park to watch Auckland FC (Invitational) take on Chelsea Women—an unforgettable opportunity to experience world-class women's football up close.

A huge congratulations to:
🌟 Gemma
🌟 Elyssia
🌟 Holly
🌟 Georgia
🌟 Sammy

These girls were selected as the first participants in our She Plays She Leads programme, which aims to inspire the next generation of female leaders both on and off the football field.

Watching elite athletes compete, sharing the experience together and seeing what's possible was the perfect way to kick off their leadership journey.

A huge thank you to their whānau for supporting them and helping make opportunities like this possible. We can't wait to see these young leaders continue to grow and make a positive impact within our club and community.

The future of football isn't just about developing great players—it's about developing confident, resilient and inspiring young women. 💚💗

Last night was something special. 💚
Through honest conversations and practical activities, our girls explored resilience, confidence, focus, and the power of lifting each other up.
It was inspiring to see 25 girls, along with parents and coaches, step outside their comfort zones, share ideas, and build skills that will help them not only in football, but in life.

This is exactly what OFC Wahine is all about — creating a space where girls feel they belong, grow in confidence, and thrive both on and off the field.

A huge thank you to Anna Veale from Untapped -Anna Veale for leading such an inspiring workshop, and to everyone who came along. We can't wait to do it again! 💚⚽

We're excited to welcome Anna Veale from Fresh Coaching to OFC for an inspiring and interactive session on building a strong performance mindset.
Whether you're a player, parent or coach, you'll leave with practical tools to: ✨ Build confidence 💪 Develop resilience 🎯 Stay focused under pressure 🌱 Grow a positive mindset on and off the field.

If you're a girl aged 12+ (or a parent or coach), we'd love to see you there. This is a fantastic opportunity to learn skills that will help not just in football, but in everyday life.
