Yesterday, Bristol Rovers were proudly represented by Watermore Primary School at the Premier League Primary Starts National Girls Football Tournament - Regional Qualifiers 2026.


Ten regional tournaments are being staged at community facilities across the country, with hundreds of young people representing Premier League, EFL and National League clubs - all hoping to earn the opportunity to represent their club at the Premier League Primary Stars National Girls Football Tournament Finals in summer 2026.


We’re delighted to share that Watermore Primary School finished an incredible third place in their regional event and have successfully qualified for Finals Day - a fantastic achievement and one the whole club and community trust is immensely proud of!


The Premier League Primary Stars National Girls Football Tournament is one of the competition elements of the Premier League Primary Stars programme. Launched in 2017 and available to every primary school in England and Wales, Premier League Primary Stars uses the appeal of football to inspire children aged five-to-11 to be active and develop essential skills.


Premier League Foundation Chief Executive Alex White said:
“The Premier League Primary Stars National Girls Football Tournament is a fantastic opportunity for young players to experience the joy and excitement of the game. These regional events unite girls from all walks of life, giving them the unique privilege of representing their club and creating memories that will last a lifetime as part of the Premier League’s commitment to supporting the wider game.”

More than 100 football club charities across England and Wales deliver Premier League Primary Stars, supporting pupils in the classroom, the playground and on the sports field. To date, more than 75,000 teachers have signed up to access free online national curriculum-linked resources.


Premier League Primary Stars also provides teachers and parents with downloadable resources across a range of curriculum subjects at Key Stage 1 (ages 5–7) and Key Stage 2 (ages 7–11), developed by teachers for teachers in collaboration with experts including the National Literacy Trust and the PSHE Association.


Frazer Phillips, BRCT Head of Sport added:
“We couldn’t be prouder of the girls and the way they represented the club throughout the tournament. They showed fantastic teamwork, resilience and determination from start to finish. To come away with a third-place finish and a place at Finals Day is a brilliant achievement - events like this give young players the opportunity to challenge themselves, build confidence and create lasting memories - and the girls did exactly that."

The Premier League Primary Stars National Girls’ Football Tournament forms part of the Premier League’s ongoing commitment to improving accessibility and inclusivity for young female players, while strengthening the development pathway from grassroots to the professional game. Between 2022–25, the Premier League invested more than £41m into women’s and girls’ grassroots football, alongside a £20m loan to Women’s Super League Football.


The Premier League has also committed a further £15m into women’s and girls’ football between 2025 and 2028, including £6.87m for the FA’s network of girls’ Emerging Talent Centres and £2.7m to support the FA Women’s National League strategy. More than 100,000 girls and young women take part in Premier League community programmes each year.

Dass Nutzer eigene Optionen haben, bemerkte ich sofort bei https://spinmama.co.at. Ich wollte ein Online‑Spiel ausprobieren, bei dem sich Symbole nach bestimmten Regeln verschieben. Zunächst startete ich, ohne dass sich viel bewegte. Eine kleine Veränderung aktivierte eine besondere Abfolge, die meinen Fortschritt deutlich verbesserte. Die Mischung aus kleinen Rückschlägen und überraschenden Momenten macht das Spiel reizvoll.
