With our usual Hetton Centre ground unavailable, the Ladies were facing the prospect of their Women's FA Cup Quarter Final tie against Bristol Academy without a ground. However SAFC Chairman Niall Quinn has stepped in to ensure that the game will now be played on a prime location at The Academy of Light on Sunday February 22nd.

All at Sunderland Women's Football Club wish to express gratitude to SAFC for their assistance in finding a resolution to this problem.

Sunderland Football Club have come to the rescue of Sunderland Ladies.
