TAC Cup Girls Program Information
Since the inaugural Gippsland Power Girls team took the field last year, the AFL has launched its elite senior women’s competition the AFLW which has become a runaway success.
The elite talent pathway for girls has also had a major boost with AFL Victoria expanding what was the Youth Girl’s competition to a new TAC Cup Girls comp with all twelve TAC Cup clubs now fielding girl’s teams.
In the same way that Gippsland boys can be drafted into the AFL, there is now a clearly defined pathway for Gippsland girls to be drafted into the AFLW (through the TAC Cup and U18 National Carnival).
In 2017 the TAC Cup Girls competition will consist of 5 rounds of matches with the aim for this number to increase in the future.
