Girls Under 12 and above Registering in the Mixed Competition
Any girl has the right to play in a mixed team at any age and cannot be excluded just because of her gender.
Based on this information it is recommended that girls should initially be given the opportunity to play in a girl’s or women’s team. However, if a girl then indicates that she would prefer to play in a mixed team, it would then be a decision for the Association in consultation with Football NSW if required.
The decision to allow a female aged over 12 years to play in mixed competition should be based on her suitability for that team and such players should be assessed to determine whether they have the strength, stamina and physique to play in that team and against players of mixed gender in that age group.
