PREMIER REGISTRATION CLOSES: Friday 20 February 2026

SOCIAL REGISTRATION CLOSES: Thursday 2 April 2026

Football is a targeted performance sport at Westlake Girls, with a strong development pathway and competitive environment. We currently operate four competitive teams: Premier, Senior A, 10A, and 9A, providing opportunities for motivated players at all levels.

2025 was an outstanding year for the programme, with the First XI finishing 4th in Auckland in both the League and the Knockout Cup, and our Year 9A team winning the Junior Knockout Cup. We are committed to building on these achievements and taking another step forward in 2026.

Alongside our competitive teams, we run a hugely popular internal Social Football Competition, perfect for students seeking a fun, inclusive way to play, stay active, or maintain fitness over summer.

• Competitive Games: Wednesdays after school at either 4:00pm or 5:10pm – Term 2
• Social Football: Tuesdays after school on the WGHS Football Turf
