Women's Community

Reigniting Women’s Football at Hibiscus Coast AFC 

At Hibiscus Coast AFC, we’re proud to have a thriving and growing junior and youth girls’ programme—a space full of energy, passion, and potential. Now, we’re ready to take the next step by building a strong, connected senior women’s football community (ages 17+).

Whether you’re an experienced player, returning after time away from the game, or completely new and curious to give football a go, we’d love to welcome you. Our aim is to create a space where women can thrive in sport, feel supported, and be part of a growing community built on connection, fun, and belonging. We want every woman to feel part of a team, a club, and a movement to bring women’s football back to life on the Coast.

To help make this happen, we’re planning to run a weekly community kick-around night throughout the season—a relaxed, no-pressure way to stay active, meet others, and enjoy the game. Come when you can, bring a friend, and connect with others who share a love of football—whether for fun, fitness, or friendship.

Interested in joining the kick-arounds?
We’d love to know who’s keen! Fill out our quick Expression of Interest form here so we can keep you in the loop as we get started.

The long-term goal is to build toward a social or competitive women’s team for next season, and it all begins with community and connection.

We’re also looking for a volunteer leader to help grow and guide this space. If you're passionate about supporting women in sport and want to play a role in shaping the future of our club, we’d love to hear from you.

Questions or ideas? Reach out anytime at female@hbcafc.org.nz

If you know someone who might be keen, please share this with them. The more we grow, the stronger our community becomes.

Together, let’s bring back the magic of Coast Women’s Football. ?
