We are the Deptford Ravens
We are the Deptford Ravens
We are a South-East London based community football team for women, non-binary and trans* players (including trans masc). Starting as a casual kickabout group in 2022, we have grown to 120+ players. We are open to players of all skill levels, but we particularly welcome complete beginners and players from the Global Majority (our term for BIPOC/ BAME).
We are striving to make our space more inclusive for GM folk, organised through our Anti-Racist subgroup, and we are LGBTQ+ inclusive.
We train together every Wednesday in Deptford/New Cross in a park from 6.15 - 8.30pm. Sessions are donations based. And we also play in Leagues.
Our motto is 'Fun over Competition!'
Fun fact: We are named after the River Ravensbourne, which flows into the River Thames at Deptford. The River owes its name to the Romans, who stumbled upon Deptford after they saw a raven drinking from the water!
