Capital Football has two squads attending the Westfield National Youth Championships for Girls, underway this week in Coffs Harbour.
With teams competing in both the U/14 & U/15 competitions, the NYC is composed differently this year, instead of U/13 & U/15 in previous years.
Capital Football Technical Director Scott O’Donell said both teams arrived safely on the weekend in Coffs, and had settled in well prior to the tournament’s opening this morning.
“We emphasised at our recent Technical Meeting that the NYC is a Talent Development Tournament,” O’Donell said.
“Capital Football is looking to have as many girls [from our squads] identified as possible.”
“With FFA bidding to host the 2023 Fifa Women’s World Cup, there is plenty of motivation for our girls to perform at these championships.”
With the Championships getting underway this morning, the fixture list can be found here.
