The global day celebrates the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women.

And on International Women’s Day, learn more about AFC Fylde’s women’s team, who compete in the Northern Premier Division.

The club have a continual programme of development and growth with aspirations, using the power of the AFC Fylde badge.

Playing their home fixtures at Kellamergh Park, AFC Fylde’s women’s team provide an inclusive, family friendly environment.

Members of the first-team squad have also been involved in AFC Fylde Community Foundation’s activities, including meeting young girls during Football Development Centre sessions at the Fylde Sports and Education Centre.

These opportunities for youngsters to meet players from Fylde’s squad serves as inspiration for the next generation of female footballers.
