We organised our first group away day to watch BCFC women take on Leicester City Women at the King Power Stadium in Leicester.
We were kindly supported by our friends from the Birmingham City Women Supporters Group and also Redditch Blues.
We took a fully packed 53 seater coach to Leicester and were welcomed by the newly formed supporters group ‘Leicester For All’ who had arranged a fantastic pre-match treat for us before kick off which included a quick 5 A side kick about for the juniors at the Leicester Sports Centre which is situated close to the ground.
The majority of the group got to experience an away day in the Barclays Women’s Super League for the first time.
Special thanks to the Fans for Diversity Campaign for supporting the event and for the kind hospitality shown by Leicester For All.
“It was the first time I’ve ever travelled to an away match and really enjoyed the banter enroute. We enjoyed mingling with the away fans too which is unusual as it’s not something you can comfortably do at a men’s game. Despite not getting the result, we had a really good day and wanted to thank the members from Leicester For All for being so welcoming.” – Param Kaur from Kings Heath
