2024 WOMENS PREMIER LEAGUE

After making history in 2023 Ryan and his team are back in 2024 and they are motivated to repeat history and qualify for the National League again - it won't be easy with several clubs pushing to be included in the top 4.

Ellerslie's 2024 Women's Premier League campaign kicks off on the 8th of Feb with Pre-season training, contact Ryan Shiffman on coaching@ellersliefootball.org.nz for more information.
