Burnley FC Women to Host Rovers in Semi-Final

Burnley FC Women are delighted to welcome Blackburn Rovers Ladies to home ground Padiham FC for the semi-final of the Lancashire FA Women’s Challenge Cup.

The tie is a fantastic opportunity for the Clarets to play Rovers, a side who have enjoyed a rise to the pinnacle of women's football since their formation in 1991.

Burnley FC Women have been on a euphoric journey since being taken under the wing of Burnley FC in the Community in 2017.

During the 2017/18 season they enjoyed their most successful season on record with a historic Women's FA Cup run, which saw them qualify for the third round proper for the first time in their history.
