ACADEMY-STYLE FOOTBALL. BUILT
FOR GIRLS.
United Football is a girls’ football development programme based around Te Puke, with a pathway from junior football through to Te Puke Senior Women. The aim is simple - give girls a good football environment, good coaching and the opportunity to keep improving. We want players to enjoy football, but we also want to challenge them. Players will be expected to work hard, listen, learn, compete and take responsibility for their development. At the same time, they should feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes and trying
things.
Good standards and a good environment should go together.

OUR PATHWAY
OUR PATHWAY
The Academy is being built progressively.
For 2027, U14 will be our oldest formal Academy age group.
Our plan is to continue building the programme as the players move through the age groups:
U12 → U13 → U14 → U15 → Te Puke Senior Women
U15 is the planned final Academy age group before players move into senior football.
We are not trying to build everything overnight. The idea is to grow the programme properly with the players and make sure each stage is ready before we move into the next one.
