Girls Skate NZ aims to empower girls through skateboarding, an activity that boosts confidence, mental toughness and physical health. Students are taught how to skate in a warm and friendly environment where they can feel safe and progress at a level that is comfortable for them. While learning the basics of skateboarding, students will also be taught the correct safety measures and skatepark etiquette to prevent injury.

Each class has an average of 20-25 girls attend. With 3-5+ coaches there to lend a hand.

As the students arrive we split them into several separate groups with a coach.

The groups they get put in are based on their skill level and age, or with the coach we think will be the most beneficial!

Classes are open to all ages and abilities.

Girls and Women’s Month is an initiative running alongside our federations through the month of March. Designed to introduce girls and women to the beautiful game across Aotearoa New Zealand. With the recent impact of the FIFA Women’s World Cup, now is the time to keep that momentum going.

Girls & Women’s month was established to shine the spotlight on girls and women in football and grow female participation at the grassroots level. Girls & Women’s month provides football stakeholders with a platform to spark discussions around gender equality and to amplify new and existing female specific programs and events to ensure we remove the barriers to entry for women and girls. Initiatives designed to ensure they increase and retain female players, administrators, coaches, referees and fans.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Our federations run a number of exciting events for girls and women across the country in March and continue to promote female-only events throughout the year.

Breaking records, raising hope

Join the Team of 280

In March 2025, Wingspan Trust is hosting a world record attempt at North Harbour Stadium to celebrate International Women's Day, and we're inviting you to be part of this groundbreaking event.

Become a rugby legend and break the record of 279 consecutive rugby ball passes with other girls and women's rugby teams — and bring the record home from Wales to Aotearoa.

She Loves Golf is about creating enjoyable and social experiences for women of all ages to inspire a love for golf.

It's about letting women know that golf isn’t the stuffy, elitist sport that it is often stereotyped as, it’s an ageless activity, with so many ways to play. You can be active and hang out with your friends at the same time. You can meet new people, and you can play as many holes as you like and you don't even have to keep score!

You don't need your own clubs to start with! It's an opportunity to learn and play along side others. We will start with basic lessons at 1pm for approximately 1 hour which will be a mixture of learning the different golf clubs and what you use them for, golf etique and then we will move off into groups and will play some golf.

An afternoon tea will be provided at 3pm where everyone is welcome to purchase drinks from the clubhouse.

All wāhine and kōhine welcome.
