GalleryPhotos: Behind the scenes at LFC Women's new St Helens home
The new home at St Helens is an exciting next chapter for Matt Beard’s team, who are now making their final preparations for the start of the 2024-25 Barclays Women’s Super League season this Sunday, when Leicester City visit.
Our behind-the-scenes images from last weekend, below, captured the players settling into their new surroundings and a first look at the brand-new, Premier League-standard Desso pitch.
Plus, see the Reds’ first team-talk in their new bespoke home dressing room, the squad’s debut of the new LFC Nike third kit – which celebrates women’s football – and post-match meet and greet with the fans to take pictures and sign autographs.
More than 3,400 tickets were sold for this pre-season Merseyside derby, which ended in a goalless draw.
Tickets for the official season-opener against Leicester back at St Helens Stadium – and three forthcoming Anfield matches – are available to buy here.
Tickets for Sunday’s fixture will also be available to purchase on the day of the game at the St Helens Stadium ticket office.
