WHO WE ARE

Welcome to the Super 5 League, where our journey began in 2016 with a frustration towards the lack of infrastructure and opportunities for women's football in the face of high demand. Founded by Shazz, our mission was clear: to shake up the status quo of men's football culture and create a vibrant space for womens and girls teams to thrive.

From humble beginnings of assisting a few women's teams with management and friendlies, the league has blossomed into a dynamic community. We pride ourselves on being more than just a football league - we're a friendly hub where collaboration flourishes. From screenings to socials, the camaraderie extends far beyond the pitch.

Today, the Super 5 League boasts 40+ teams across 6 divisions, catering to players of all levels from beginners to advanced. But our impact goes beyond the game itself. We're passionate about giving back, supporting both local and international charities, including the Hackney Homeless shelters during the winter months.

Our journey has taken us beyond league fixtures. We've hosted local and international tournaments, welcoming teams from all corners. Additionally, we've lent our expertise to consult and assist with external events, ensuring that football remains inclusive and accessible for all ages.

Our vision is clear: to grow grassroots women's football in London and beyond, serving as a blueprint for leagues everywhere. We're open to collaboration, consultation, and partnership opportunities, eager to set up and nurture other leagues while continuing to elevate the game in both quantity and quality.

Join us in our mission to champion women's football and build a brighter future for the beautiful game.

OUR REFS

At Super 5, we take great pride in giving our players the chance to referee games and providing coaching for those who want to learn.

Empowering women is a core value for us, and we're dedicated to helping them advance in the football industry. In partnership with the Amateur Football Alliance (AFA), we offer subsidised courses for players in our league who aspire to become match officials.

It's worth noting that our referee course isn't just for our players – it's open to anyone interested in officiating. We also provide the opportunity for individuals to shadow our referees during match days, allowing them to get a feel for the role and decide if it's something they'd like to pursue
