Our league features Open (all ages) and Over-35 divisions during the Fall and Spring seasons. We play full-field, 90-minute 11v11 games with professional referees. Our Open divisions play on Saturdays, while the Over-35 divisions compete on Sundays. Season Overview- Fall Season: Starts in September (weekend after Labor Day) through late-November. - Spring Season: Kicks off the first weekend of March and goes through late May. Each team typically plays 10 games per season, depending on division size. Some seasons may extend beyond 10 weeks due to holidays, rainouts, reschedules, or BYES, GGWSL strives to teach, promote, facilitate, and develop the game of soccer for female, trans, and non-binary players throughout the Bay Area. Good sportsmanship is a cornerstone of the league. GGWSL, a nonprofit, gives back to the community through donations and partnerships with local organizations that work with youth and girls' soccer.

You don’t need to be in peak physical shape to join! We’re all at various stages of fitness, and many people have taken quite a few years off since they last played. We promote a dynamic league structure with promotion and relegation based on team performance each season. Joining is simple!
We suggest you be proactive in searching for the right team.
League Fee $1,850 per team (Premier teams: $1,950) - The cost per player varies based on factors like roster size, practices, and equipment. For example, a non-premier team with a 22-person roster and weekly practices in San Francisco typically charges around $110 per player per season. Team contacts can provide specific details.
Game Locations and Times We play in San Francisco, East Bay (Alameda, Berkeley), and North Bay (Marin). Each team chooses its home region (indicated as SF, EB, or NB). We aim for at least half of your games to be in your home region, but it may vary based on division teams. Note that team placements can change due to promotion and relegation at the end of each season. Typically game start times can at 9 am, 11 am, 1 pm , 3 pm, or 5 pm. Timing depends on field availability. The time of a team's game will not be know until the schedule comes out, usually a week or two prior to the season.
