100 Years of Women’s Football

Today, Friday 24 September we celebrate 100 years of women’s football in Australia. The first official womens game was held at the Gabba in Brisbane in 1921 when North Brisbane played South Brisbane.

Majura FC acknowledges and pays tribute to the women in football who for 100 years have shaped the beautiful game.
A special shout out to all the Majura FC girls and women players, referees, coaches, managers, and volunteers – thank you for your contributions
