With the new week marking six months until England's first game the 2023 Women's World Cup, preparations for the Lionesses are ramping up.
England will kick-off their campaign on July 22 in Brisbane Football Stadium against a currently-unknown opponent, with the final spots up for grabs in next months' play-offs. The European Champions will also face Denmark and China as they aim to navigate Group D.
With less than half a year to go until the big kick-off, England manager Sarina Wiegman headed out to Australia last week to check out the team base and hotel in Gosford on the Central Coast. The Lionesses boss was accompanied by Football Association support staff to plan logistics and get a feel for the facilities.
