Girls' football at Repton continues to flourish with the school now fielding two senior teams and a 7-a-side junior team.
Lent term is when the majority of the fixtures take place but the girls start their cup campaigns in Michalemas and the junior team enters tournaments in the Summer term. With around 50 girls being involved across the year groups, it is certainly a sport which is gaining in popularity and momentum.
Under 18 Side
We compete in the Independent Schools under 18 cup and have had success in recent years. The school was crowned champions in 2009 and most recently has reached the semi-finals in 2014 and the final in 2016.
The Midlands circuit is arguably the most challenging in the country and Repton have won the Midlands League in 2015 and 2016.
7-a-side tournaments
We also enter the ISFA 7-a-side competitions and have enjoyed success in recent years. The senior side finished as national runners up in 2014, 3rd place in 2015 and were crowned champions for the first time in 2016.
The junior girls also enter regional 7-a-side competitions and have finished as runners up in 2013 and 2015, winning the title in 2014.
National & Regional RepResentatives
We reguarly have girls representing the school in the Midlands side and national ISFA sides.
On 2015/16 we had 2 girls in the under-18 ISFA England side and 1 in the under-16 side. In 2016/17 we have 3 girls in the under-18 side.
House football
In the summer term there are junior and senior house football tournaments arranged to coincide with the FA girls football week. These are incredbily popular events with several girls choosing to take up the sport on the back of their experiences.
