Who are the The Empowered Valkyrie
In Norse mythology, the Valkyrie were warrior maidens who chose the overlooked and carried the worthy to glory.
In the same spirit, The Empowered Valkyrie brings together female footballers from regional and remote areas — players often left behind by the pathways of the big cities.
Like the Valkyrie who lifted warriors from the battlefield, this team lifts women from the shadows, giving them the chance to stand on the biggest stages, to compete, and to be celebrated.
They are fierce, fearless, and united — a force that embodies strength, empowerment, and opportunity.
Colours: Teal Blue (strength & confidence) with Pink Accents (unity & empowerment).
Mascot: The Valkyrie — guardian, warrior, and champion of the overlooked.
