Womens Premiers

Coach: TBC

The Team

Queenstown women’s team, affectionately known as the “Rovers” was established in 2009. The team play in the Dunedin Womens Premier League, which means dedication, resilience and a true love of the game are prerequisites for our players. A true testament to those traits is evident in the fact we finished second in the league in both 2018 and 2020.

The diversity of Queenstown population is reflected in our team – in addition to our local home grown talent players from every corner of the world can be heard to shout “Grande objetivo” – “Ottimo obiettvio” – and “Great Goal “.

Everyone is welcome at the Rovers.

MENS RESERVES / YOUTH

Coach: TBC

The Team

In 2023 we have re-introduced a reserve team, playing in the Central Otago Football League Division One, under the name “QAFC Youth”.

The team is led by QAFC long time coach Steve Henderson and consists largely of players in their late teens, supplemented by players from the broader squads from our men’s first team.

This is a great opportunity for local players to progress into senior football and we hope for many of these players this will provide a pathway into our future first team.
