It might start in the stands, or in the backyard... but our dreams to play can become a reality with ‘Goal Girls’ thanks to Nike and Rebel.

What is better than finding a community of like-minded girls who love the game? Who can build skills and confidence together, who are a team of girls supporting girls.
More girls are engaged in the game than ever before... with over 1.5 million Australian girls taking to the pitch every season and that number is growing exponentially year-on-year, and you can be part of this movement.
Let's grow the game together... one pass at a time, and build on this incredible moment of inspiration and passion we have right now during this tournament.
The Matildas are the most popular team in the country right now... and maybe one day we can be a Matilda too. It starts today... building a healthy lifestyle, building our skills, and building a community.
From a kick in the park, the garage or on the street... I have experienced firsthand the intoxicating and positive impact this sport has had on my own kids. In the stands, in the lounge room, to football camp proudly wearing his Matildas kit with pride playing against the 11-year-olds who yell his name in encouragement. My 5-year-old has found a place where he feels, strong, confident and where he feels he belongs andhe dreams of being a Matilda one day too.
Let's continue this movement... Come with me, come with us. We are going to kick goals, not just on the pitch... but in life and build a brighter future of play for her... And GO THE MATILDAS.
