There are six divisions (Div 1-6) and a maximum of 8 teams in each division.

The division a team is placed in will be based on player experience and age. Please note that the division that a team is placed in is at the discretion of Stirling Districts FC.

If this happens to your team please see the Twilight Coordinator and we will see if we can change your division.  We try to accommodate everyones requests but unfortunately this is not always possible but we will do our best to make everyone happy.

If we have 8 all girls teams submitted we will create an all girls-division, otherwise the divisions will be mixed.

Mixed teams must have at least 3 female players on the pitch at one time (not playing as GK) or a mix of women.  If for a game you do not have 3 women in your team to play on the pitch, you can still play the game but the game will be considered a forfeit.

Yes, of course! However all divisions will be mixed unless we get enough all-girls teams to form an all-girls division.
