Special week of celebrations for Rangers
WARRNAMBOOL Rangers soccer teams had plenty of reasons to celebrate last weekend.
Not only was it Female Football Week across Australia (May 8-17) but also Mother’s Day on Sunday.
Teams met for round three of Southwest Football Victoria on the weekend, with players showcasing great skills and teamwork across all ages.
The players also shared a beautiful moment after their games by handing out a flower to their mothers.
Female Football Week focuses on empowering women and girls across all levels of the game.
The week highlights engagement, growth and special events like the Rangers’ under 13 girls’ derby match.
