Children Go Free to the Women’s FA Cup Final

Having successfully staged the Women’s FA Cup Final for the first time at Wembley last year, this year’s showpiece event will again take place at the National Stadium on Saturday 14 May. 

And, in a bid to top the 30,000+ crowd from 2015, Adult tickets are priced at £15 for the game, Concessions (OAP/Student) are £5 and up to four children can attend for free with a paying adult. 

FA director of football development and participation Kelly Simmons told the Football Association website: "By working in partnership with (sponsors) SSE to offer free entry to children, we hope it encourages more schools, families and groups to come to Wembley and be part of one of the showpiece events of the season." 

The competition is currently at the Fourth Round stage with the next set of ties taking place on Sunday 28 February and Durham WFC are offering admission for just £1 to their home game against Charlton Athletic.

That’s two articles in two days with positive things to say about the FA after the announcement of Non-League Finals Day at Wembley on Sunday 22 May and the governing body have also announced that their strong financial position at present has enabled them to reduce FA Cup Final tickets by £5 across all price points.
