Edinburgh Wolves Women
The Edinburgh Wolves Women’s team was Founded October 2014 when 20 women turned up for the first ever Edinburgh Wolves Women’s American Football practice.
About Us
Their rookie season saw them compete in BAFAs (British American Football Association) 2015 Sapphire Series, the UKs full contact women’s competition. Women’s Contact has since grown to a 7v7 format over the years, and saw the league extended to a two tier system with a Division One and Division Two in 2016, each with a North and South conference. After seeing a further growth in participation in 2017/18, all divisions were moved to the 7v7 format which is the format that we play today, known as the National Women’s Football League (NWFL)
