Some of the best young female talent in the country will display their skills on the playing fields of Canberra this week as seven teams converge on the Australian Institute of Sport for the 2022 NTC competition.

Hosts Capital Football will be joined by New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, Victoria, Football West and a New South Wales Regional Select in what should be a high-quality tournament across five days.

The Capital Football challenge will be led by Canberra United Assistant Coach Antoni Jagarinec assisted by Ellie Brush with their first match of the tournament being against South Australia on Monday 3 October.

A double-header against Victoria and Football West follows on Tuesday before the big interstate rivalry with New South Wales takes centre stage on Wednesday. Matches against Queensland and Regional NSW complete the week for the local-based squad.

Admission to all matches is free.
