The team picture is of Mark Simpson (Manager/Coach) with the U12/13 Belles wearing their new sponsored polo shirts before their first league match of the season.
This is the second season that the Belles are playing 'girls only' league football, following the success of last seasons U11/12 Belles who were unbeaten in the league. Some of the girls joined the club's 'mixed' team, the U10 Sharks where they played football with and against boys and Karla Simpson (Captain) has been with the club since she was an U7 where she started out in our Community Football programme.

The Belles will play their matches on either Pitch 1 or 3 at Harperbury and they'll be competing in the Pink Division of the newly formed Hertfrdshire Girls Football Partnership League (a Charter Standard League working in conjunction with the Herts FA and supporting the FA Respect Programme).
The other 6 teams in this division are:

The U12/13 Belles Squad currently has 10 league registered players with two others in the process of being registered and four others in our Development Squad that just play in Friendly matches and in the monthly Football Festivals organised through the HGFPL (Herts Girls Football Partnership League).
