Senior women’s football
After much anticipation, 2022 saw our first senior women’s football side come together and play in the Central Victoria Football League Women’s (CVFLW). After a fairytale first season, the team has gone on to win four consecutive CVFLW Premierships.
Our Club has been extremely proud to see the dream of an open age women’s team become a reality. With a demonstrated interest for women’s football in the community including through our Junior Football Club, CFNC is keen to support the continued development of younger players by offering expanded opportunities to play for their home Club.
Castlemaine Football Netball Club has a proven record in turning out high quality women’s players with our Under 18 Youth Girls Team (2013-2017) earning a grand final placing in each participating season, and winning two premierships.
Our program has consistently seen our players selected within CVFL Interleague sides, perform highly within League vote counts, and be selected within the CVFL ‘team of the year’.
We are very proud to say that several of our senior players have been selected to VFLW squads:
Meg Ginnivan selected to the Southern Saints.
Shelby Knoll selected to Casey Demons (AFLW selection to Richmond Tigers)
Tia Davidge selected to Essendon.
Aisling Tupper selected to North Melbourne.
Lily Den Houting selected to Essendon.
