Our captain ruby has been hospitalised following today’s game. She has broken her fibula in 3 places, snapped her tibula & dislodged both out of place. Ruby will undergo a CT scan followed by an operation to reset her bones & install metal plates & bars to keep it in place 😢😢
They have only gone and done it.
What a performance from our ladies. In their first season in senior football with 99% of the squad under 18 they win their first trophy.

We thank Portchester for the game and congratulate them on a terrific season

A busy day as we install another 2 x 11 a side pitches giving us access to 4 x 11 a side pitches, 9 a side & a 7 a side pitch for the girls to play on.
This week see us start our partnership with a local school as we provide after school clubs allowing girls access to football
Excited to announce that we have launched our very own U18 girls team.
This is a massive achievement as this will allow us to step into senior football from next season providing our players a link from youth football through to senior womans football all at the same . ⚽️⚽️
Well done to our U16s today. Worked hard in training over the last month and coming so close in games they finally went and got their first league victory of the season in the JPL. I think we can say that the girls were very happy about it as well. No signing careers though
If this is not the reason why you coach then you shouldn’t be doing it. Too many youth coaches thinking it is all about them and waiting for that big money offer 🙈
With our ladies game Called off today our attention turns to being spectators as we split ourselves to go and support local teams in
@PompeyWomen
and
@MoneysFCWomen
.
Massive good luck to both teams flying the flag for the local area in the FA cup 👏👏⚽️⚽️

Match day for our ladies as we make the short trip to face AFC Portchester Ladies Development at Cams Hill School 2pm kick off.
Free car parking, free entry and what should be another great game what more could you want on a Sunday ⚽️⚽️
A really good display from the ladies today in a dominate performance playing some good football along the way. A special mention to Rushmoor ladies who’s players and coaches are a credit to both their club and league.
Reflection Monday & our ladies in the spot light.
A squad brand new and stepping into ladies football for the very first time. A squad full on teenagers with the oldest being 17. Adapted to the game at this level, continuing to play the right way and not doing too bad at it 😁
Due to injuries and players moving across to Academies our U16 girls are now looking for additional players. Ideally forwards and strikers but all positions considered
Today is the day ⚽️ no matter what happens this squad has done more for women’s and girls football than they will ever realise so thank you and good luck from everyone
#ItsComingHome
Great to see our U18s coaches put on a session last night with our U16 coaches watching & observing so that teams have a continuous coaching standard being delivered. Opening yourself up for feedback from other coaches helps develop everyone. Player pathway, coach development ✅
