What HER5 Is

HER5 is a women's only football and community brand based in Dorset. Built by two mums who grew up playing football together, HER5 exists to give women more accessible, welcoming, and exciting ways to play, connect, and belong.

Mission

Provide reliable, organised football that women can commit to with confidence, alongside a community that supports them on and off the pitch.

Vision

Build a supportive network where women feel seen, valued and part of something bigger than just fixtures. Football is the anchor, community is the goal.

Positioning

A women's football and community movement for women in sport, fitness and life. Together.

Wordmark

The HER5 logo is a custom wordmark built in Inter Extra Bold. "HER" is always white (or black on light backgrounds) and "5" is always pink. The two parts sit together with tight letter spacing as one unified mark.
