Bristol Rovers Women’s FC, now known as the Gas Girls, will play at the Memorial Stadium for the first time in more than 20 years and take to the field directly after the men’s team’s league fixture against Forest Green Rovers on April 23.
The Gas Girls, who last month secured the South West Regional League Northern Division title, have been playing their home fixtures at Lockleaze Sports Centre but will follow Joey Barton’s Gas side in what is likely to be a key fixture in determining the League Two promotion race.
That game will also be the club’s dedicated #HerGameToo fixture, with Rovers fans Caz May and Lucy Ford among the founder members of the organisation which fights sexism in football.
