Title: Ladies Promoted!
Post by: Community Proj on June 08, 2015, 11:10:17 AM: Great News this morning

The FA have now decided that both Altrincham and Haslingden will be promoted to the North West Women's Regional League.

So, after only four years of existence, the Ladies have secured their first promotion (hopefully the first of many)

Thanks to all our sponsors, current and past, to the Football Club, Alan Ainsley, Mersey Valley Sports Club and to Judy Henson for her brilliant work on our promotion pack.

I was watching the Germany/Ivory Coast ladies game last night and it was a while before I realised it was a 3G pitch. No one seems to be having any trouble with the bounce of the ball or the supposedly ankle sapping nature of the pitch.
