Dirty Reds (Women)

The Goulburn Women’s team made it’s debut on August 20, 2011 in a game of touch football against an invitational side as part of a fund-raising day for “Say NO to Domestic Violence.”

Other similar games followed in the following years.

They’ve been called the Flirty Reds, the Dirty Birds and plain old Dirty Reds.

Over the last four years, the women’s side has played in pre-season sevens rugby tournaments.

In 2019 they fielded a team in the ACT Women’s 10s competition, went through the season undefeated, and took out the premiership and in 2020, in their first season of 15 a side rugby, the team made the semi-finals.

The Goulburn Women’s Rugby Union 2021 season is about to kick-off! The team will be part of the ACT Premier Women’s XVs competition for the second season playing sides from Royals, Tuggeranong, Uni Norths, Queanbeyan and Wests.
