Sadly, on three occasions this season, members of our Under 10 Girls teams, that compete in the Devon Girls Football League, have been subjected to some vile, disgusting and outdated comments and verbal abuse from adults we have encountered in grassroots football.

These girls have been accused of being boys, purely down to the way that they look and their chosen hairstyles. As a club, we have been accused of 'cheating' and forging player registrations to have boys playing in our Girls football teams.
