Charlton to play at The Valley

Women's Football FA Women's Championship News - 1 Feb 2019

Charlton Athletic's fixture against local rivals Millwall Lionesses in the FA Women's Championship will now take place under the floodlights at The Valley.

The fixture has been moved to Wednesday 13th March, with a 7.45pm kick off.

Charlton manager Riteesh Mishra is pleased that such a big fixture will be held at The Valley.

"I'm proud that the team gets to play at such a big venue as The Valley again," he told the club's website. "Playing at the main ground is such a positive statement for the women's game and I know that my players will relish the opportunity to play in front of a big crowd."

The Charlton Athletic women's team have played a few games at The Valley over the past few seasons including playing West Ham last season, and a goal packed victory over Portsmouth in the 2016-17 campaign.

Now as a semi professional side, the Addicks will be hoping to secure a large crowd at The Valley with many other FA Women's Championship games seeing crowds of 1500+ when played at the main team stadiums, the latest being last Sunday when Aston Villa took on Leicester City at Villa Park.
