But it's been shattered by Capital Football's decision to cut the Panthers from the women's premier league.

The impact of that call will not only be felt by Panthers players, but Brindabella Blues players as well.

Monaro and the Blues formed an alliance to form a pathway from community soccer to the NPLW.

Brindabella girls co-ordinator Michael Sutton said the decision's a blow to women's soccer.

He also felt cutting one of nine NPLW teams to increase the standard of the competition was flawed due to the nature of women's sport.

Sutton said girls and women tended to start playing with friends and family, which meant they would progress through the levels in groups.

Cutting off pathways hindered that progression and he felt Capital Football should be encouraging more alliances such as theirs.

He wanted all nine NPLW clubs to remain, including the controversial Capital Football-run Canberra United Academy - the governing body opting to keep their own team in the competition at the expense of Monaro.

Sutton knows a thing or two about women's football - he's had five daughters come through the Blues system that he's been a part of for more than a decade.

He revealed the "Brinda Monaro vision" - which planned to utilise the Jerrabomberra sporting complex, but was now at risk of never coming to fruition.

Sutton was hopeful of convincing Capital Football their decision erred in looking at the past rather than the future, with the governing body finally agreeing to meet with the Panthers next week.

"This isn't about what has happened, this is about having a broader approach and looking forward," he said.

"We've got this vision around a new women's and girls' team called Bella Monaro, based at the Queanbeyan-Palerang regional sport complex, that is all focused on girls, all focused on women, and by and large run by women and trained by women. That's our ultimate goal."

Sutton was buoyed by the support shown from all three levels of government, with Eden-Monaro member Kristy McBain, NSW Deputy Premier John Barilaro and Queanbeyan mayor Tim Overall all calling on Capital Football to reverse their decision.

But, given the Brindabella-Monaro alliance meant Canberra women and girls were also affected - almost half of the NPLW players were from the Blues - he hoped ACT Deputy Chief Minister Yvette Berry, Joy Burch and Mick Gentleman would also get involved.

The Blues have been trying for several years to form a pathway to the NPLW for their players.

Firstly, as a standalone club before forming partnerships with Monaro, then Cooma and now with Monaro again.

"What you're seeing is a groundswell of public opinion and it's really good to see that Monaro's got their local MPs involved," Sutton said.

"I'm hoping Yvette Berry, who is the minister for sport, and our local members Joy Burch and Mick Gentleman get involved as well.

"There are hundreds of girls - not just involved in the club at the moment - but the hundreds of girls coming through that are going to be inspired by the World Cup.

"When that comes around in 2023 you'll see the numbers wanting to play skyrocket."
