New Direction Girls
Debut:	Vitamin D
Type:	Branch of New Directions
Head:	Rachel Berry (Former Captain)
Institution:	William McKinley High School
Status:	Active

The New Directions' Girls currently include Tina, Marley, Kitty, Sugar and Unique. Kurt was also sometimes considered as one of New Directions' girls and tries to join their group in gender-spilt-mashups competitions. However, he was usually sent back to the boy's team by Will. Lauren is a past emblematic member of the club.

The New Directions' Girls are simply just the girls in New Directions. They are not a separate club, but they often separate from the boys to do Girl Power numbers such as Halo/Walking on Sunshine, Express Yourself, and Start Me Up/Livin' On a Prayer. Tina, Rachel, and Mercedes have been there since the founding of New Directions, but Lauren Zizes joins in season two.

Mercedes, Santana and Brittany were also original members, but left in season three to join The Troubletones with Shelby Corcoran as the director. Sugar, originally rejected from the New Directions, was the cause of Shelby's group. She later joins the New Directions when Mercedes, Santana, and Brittany rejoin. Rachel, Mercedes, Quinn, and Santana all graduated in Goodbye, therefore not being in the club anymore. Brittany left New Directions in All or Nothing, after an early admission into MIT, graduating during her second senior year.

Others have been apart of them in the past, including April Rhodes and Sunshine Corazon.

• Four out of six of the girls in Season One had a relationship with Finn. Quinn dated Finn but they broke up because Finn found out Puck was the father of Quinn's baby. Rachel and Finn have kissed a number of times while he was still dating Quinn. See Fuinn. In Hell-O, Rachel thought she was dating Finn, but Finn resisted (see Finchel). Also in Hell-O, Finn went on a date with both Brittany and Santana. In The Power of Madonna, Finn had sex with Santana.
• Tina is the only one of the original New Directions Girls to have never quit.
