Expressions of Interest: Join the Royals’ Women’s Football Revolution!

The Essendon Royals are excited to open Expressions of Interest for our State League 2 Women’s Team and our Community Under-18s side. 

As one of Melbourne’s biggest football clubs, we’re proud of our commitment to women’s football and are on the lookout for passionate players ready to elevate their game.

Why Join the Royals?

NPLW Pathways: Our Senior Women compete at the NPLW level, and on our promotion journey to the top-flight of VIctorian football, talented young players have always been given the opportunity to play their part, demonstrating the clear pathway on offer for ambitious players.

Development Focus: Our State League 2 and U18 squads are designed to nurture talent, providing a robust environment for players to hone their skills and transition to senior football.

Commitment to Women’s Football: At the Royals, women’s football isn’t an afterthought—it’s a priority. We’re dedicated to providing equal opportunities and resources to our female athletes.
