West riding women's beginner league
The WBL has been setup on the back of our successful ‘Mums Can Play’ provision which launched in 2018 and the demand for a league to represent the players and teams alike. The league provides a competitive opportunity for females who have little or no experience of playing football to play in an environment that is suited to their ability.
All fixtures are 9-a-side, plus an additional 11-aside cup competition, with fixtures taking place in 3 divisions across 4 venues – St Wilfrids Featherstone, West Riding County FA Woodlesford, Rossett Sports centre Harrogate and Prince Henry’s Otley on Sunday’s between 3pm and 6pm.We are always looking for new players and new teams to join the league so if you are interested in getting involved, please complete the following expression of interest form HERE
