The Don & Dearne is purely a schools’ competition, however we are keen to provide pointers to football opportunities in our patch.

One starting point is to use the Weetabix Wildcats website to find local training sessions.

Local football clubs may not always show up on the Wildcats website. Here’s a list of details of girls football opportunities as of June 2025. (Please get in touch contact@tottycup.co.uk if you spot something that needs updating or WhatsApp 07985902346 ).
