Teams from Strathfieldsaye, Kangaroo Flat and Kyneton play at Dower Park at 5pm on Fridays, with extra players forming a composite Rainbow side to ensure two matches are held each week.
Modified rules allow skills to develop as the girls rotate between the forward line, backline and midfield.
The emphasis is on participation and fun, with players improving noticeably as the season progresses.
Girls interested in joining the Bendigo Junior Football League under-12 female division can contact club representatives.
