Welcome to the TUFC NPL Girls Program for 2026

Our vision is to be the club of choice for aspiring players in the ACT and to promote a professional, fun, and team-first environment in which all players develop and grow as people.

In 2026, our mission is to strengthen and build our team-first culture.

We believe that winning comes from playing ‘Good Football’.

At TUFC, ‘Good Football’ means that players are given a licence and the confidence to develop ‘Good Football’ techniques and tactics. We teach football that is played Fast, Agressive and Direct (FAD). This means instead of screaming at our players ‘boot it out’, we’re encouraging players to combine in small spaces to play out of trouble, no matter where you are on the field, and to have purpose in play no matter the position on the field and the situation.

Tim Davies, TUFC Technical Director

As TUFC TD, Tim is responsible for the development of all coaches and players.

Tim has a long resume of experience and qualifications. Of note include:

Our pre-season camp will be held 21-22 February 2026.

Camp kicks off, on Friday night, with our First Grade players conducting masterclasses based on playing positions. This is always a great opportunity to get know the senior players and learn from the Club’s best.

On Saturday morning, you’ll make your way to Birrigai Outdoor School Camp and participate in a wide variety of sessions and activities covering nutrition, injury management, recovery, mental skills, leadership, and fun challenges. 

Sunday morning kicks off with an Hour of Power group fitness session before pack-up and departure.

While we are focused on winning games, through Good Football and developing players, success is not gained as an individual.

Football is not just about the results on the pitch. It’s also about developing people.

To help prepare for the season TUFC hosts a pre-season tournament.

While players will undertake conditioning during training sessions, TUFC coaches also offer additional conditioning sessions, especially during the pre-season.

You’ll have the ability to work on your endurance, speed, and agility to help ensure you are ready for the physical challenges of the season.

Move Happy is the TUFC NPL Girls Physiotherapy partner and helps us get injured players back to 100% and back on the park as soon as possible.

At the start of the season, Move Happy will baseline your uninjured physical state so there is comparison data in the event of an injury. Importantly, this includes concussion baselining.

If you do get injured, Move Happy provide a TUFC dedicated post-game triage clinic for injured players that need to be seen promptly. This clinic is used to identify players who need to be seen formally for physiotherapy, referred for imaging, or those who just need to be checked and cleared to play with some adjustments.

If you do require treatment, through your insurance, included in your participation costs, 75% of the cost of treatment is covered (when claiming back). This allows you to be effectively and thoroughly rehabbed without being worried about the burden of the associated costs.

Where possible, TUFC looks to enter teams into the Kanga Cup.

Tournament football is always a unique experience, providing opportunities to play against different opposition.

360Player, our club-wide platform, provides players and parents/guardians with a one-stop app for all your registration, payment, and information needs.

For each team, 360Player provides a private social wall, group chats, and private chats. Plus, players and parents can RSVP for trainings and games with a simple tap.

Registering for club events such as camps, team building, presentation nights, and the like is a breeze with built-in forms and seamless online payments.

For those wishing to spread payments out, the app allows you to easily set up and stick to a payment plan.
