PPJ GIRLS 2016

The PPJ Girls 2016 team currently has around 45 players. New players can join throughout the year, regardless of their previous experience or skill level.

During the winter season, team activities consist of training twice a week, as well as winter leagues and other events. In the summer season, we play in district leagues and tournaments. In training sessions, the team is divided into small groups that train under the guidance of the coaches.

Training Times
Winter season: 20 Oct 2025 – 12 Apr 2026

• Tue 17:30–19:00 – Intersport Arena (Jätkäsaari bubble hall)
  (30 min warm-up/physical training, 1 h football training)
• Sun 17:30–19:00 – Intersport Arena (Jätkäsaari bubble hall)
  (30 min warm-up/physical training, 1 h football training)

Training times may change when moving to the outdoor season.

Equipment
Please bring to training:

• PPJ training shirt
• Sports shorts
• Shin guards
• Football socks
• Football boots (FG/AG; artificial turf indoors)
• Ball (size 4)
• Water bottle (name written with tape or marker)

During the winter season the indoor hall can be cool, so a long-sleeved base layer top and tights may be needed.
For trial trainings, general sportswear and running shoes are sufficient, but shin guards are always required.
