Derby County Ladies are set to make their FA Women’s National League, Pride Park Stadium debut next month.


Back in March, the club announced it would be increasing their support of Derby County Ladies for the 2018/19 campaign and beyond.

The enhanced support now sees the Ladies’ first-team training at the Derby County Training Centre in partnership with the University of Derby, as the Ewe Rams continue to align themselves more closely to the main club in terms of its governance structure.

The next stage of the ever-growing relationship will see Pride Park Stadium host the FA Women’s National League Fixture between Derby County Ladies and Nottingham Forest Ladies during the September international break.

The game is to be played on Sunday 9th September 2018, kick off 2pm.

A number of exciting events will be taking place at Pride Park Stadium on the day and will be communicated to supporters in due course.

Tickets will be available to secure or purchase in advance of the fixture as follows:

“We’d like to encourage the amazing supporters of Derby County to get behind the Ladies arm of the club and attend what will be a fantastic day.”

Dave Leverton, Unlimited Wellbeing’s Chief Operating Officer, said: “The growth of Ladies football is incredibly exciting and the opportunity to support Derby County Ladies was one that we couldn’t resist.
