Your Support Matters

Description

The Women’s football club is a competitive, contact-flag football team that competes in two seasons during the school year. The Waterloo Women’s Football League (WWFL) consists of 7v7 flag football tournaments in September and October, and the Ontario Women’s Intercollegiate Football Association (OWIFA) consists of 11v11 contact-flag tournaments from January to March. Women’s contact flag-football is played as full contact on the offensive and defensive lines while receivers and quarterbacks wear flags. Participation in OWIFA games and tournaments are restricted to current UoG students who are eligible for the women’s division, however male, and non-student club members are welcomed and encouraged to attend practices in a supporting role (I.e., a coach, trainer, etc.) The Women’s football team offers the opportunity for female athletes to participate in a typically male-dominated sport at an intercollegiate level. All skill levels are welcome to play!
