Rangers’ latest incarnation has just celebrated 12 months without tasting defeat.
The unbeaten side leads the northern championship race, accumulating 28 out of a possible 30 points, five clear of Launceston United in pursuit of back-to-back titles.
Rangers dual vice-captain Georgia Barr said teammates have talked about stepping up to the top league in the state should the team’s dominance continue this season.
The only thing holding the club back is having enough players to affiliate in both competitions, a prerequisite under Football Federation Tasmania’s firm criteria.
“There are quite a few girls who do want to play in the Super League,” Barr said.
“It would be great for us and we do have quite a few girls who are able to play at that standard and who have.”
Launceston City finished second in the previous two years of the Women’s Super League, a position the side is holding in the 2018 season.
A number of championship Rangers have crossed over to their rival for the experience but returned home.
“We do want to stay together as a team,” Barr said.
“As long as we do that, it’ll make it a lot easier [to join].”
