FIFA Women’s World Cup 2019
The first details regarding tickets for next summer’s World Cup have been announced with an initial window for residents in the host nation France before they go on sale to supporters elsewhere on 19 October.
With the Men's Euro 2020 competition spread across the continent (and the semi-finals and final at Wembley) and the 2022 World Cup scheduled for Qatar it means chances to get that 'tournament feeling' are few and far between in the next few years.
That makes a summer in France, easily accessible with good stadiums (the Parc des Princes in Paris hosts the opening game and six more matches) and a great country to visit, an appealing one and ticket prices look as though they will be realistic with three-match packages starting at €25.
England begin their preparations for the tournament in earnest with a double-header of friendlies early next month.
They take on Brazil at Notts County on Saturday 6th October (12.30pm) and Australia at Fulham on Tuesday 9th (7pm). Tickets are £10 Adults, £1 Concessions.

The Week Ahead
The Premier League International Cup gets underway for the 2018/19 season next week, the tournament including a number of English Under-23 sides and their European counterparts.
All matches are played in England which gives the opportunity to catch something different, like Athletic Club Bilbao against VFL Wolfsburg which is scheduled for Aldershot's EBB Stadium on Wednesday 26th at 7pm.
On Saturday 29th there are a trio of Non-League matches that may be of interest.
In Lancashire, Barnoldswick Town FC of the North West Counties Premier Division are marking their founding in 1972 and hope to see as many people as possible who have contributed to the club's rise.
Ashton Athletic are the visitors to the Silentnight Stadium and admission will be on a 'Pay What You Want' basis.
And it is 'Pay What You Want' for National League South action at Bath City FC (against Welling United) for their annual Community Day.
There are loads of activities going on for families and the club are also looking to entice students heading to the city this month to sample the atmosphere at Twerton Park and perhaps adopt The Romans as their second team.
At Sholing FC, where manager Dave Diaper recently marked 1,000 game in charge of The Boatmen, it is also Community Day and there is free entry for the game against AFC Portchester in the wessex Premier League.
And Sunday 30th is the final day to get half-price (£7.50) adult tickets for the 2019 Women's FA Cup Final at Wembley.
Update: Derby County's Premier League International Cup tie against Paris St Germain is set for Pride Park on Friday at 7pm and admission is free.

Barnsley FC
I always enjoy visits to Oakwell, home of Barnsley FC since 1887, the ground is easily accessible from the town centre and there is always a nice sense of people walking to the game, following the same traditions as they have done for many years and maybe reminiscing about their favourite players from time gone by.
A number of those players will be inducted into the inaugural Oakwell Hall of Fame on Friday 12th October and there will be further events taking place around the League One home game against Luton Town the following day (kick-off 12pm).
Ticket prices have been reduced to £10 Adults, £5 Seniors, Young Adults and Under 17's and £1 for accompanied Under 12's.
Saturday 13th October is also Non-League Day up and down the country (and beyond).
I'll update as many offers as I can on Twitter but also follow Non-League Day for full details.
