    The festival will feature a women’s 7-a-side community tournament, as well as free soccer programs and activities for all ages and skill levels.

    Mayor of Brimbank, Cr Lucinda Congreve encouraged community members to come along to the festival, and to register themselves or their kids to take part in the activities planned.

    “This will be the second annual Brimbank Female Football Festival and it promises to be a fantastic day out for the entire family.

    “It doesn’t matter if you’re a football fanatic, or have never even touched a soccer ball before – we’ve got something to suit everyone,” the Mayor said.

    Cr Georgina Papafotiou said: “Promoting female participation in sport is important to Council. We want to see as many community members - no matter what their age or ability – out there, having fun, being active, and giving soccer a go.”

    Community members can now register for the following free activities:
