The Falkirk Foundation have teamed up with Scottish Women’s Football to offer 150 free tickets to local youth sides for the upcoming Biffa Scottish Women’s Cup semi-finals taking place in Falkirk next month.

Four SWPL1 sides will battle it out, with Hearts v Celtic at noon followed by Partick Thistle v Glasgow City at 4.30pm.

SWF chief executive officer Aileen Campbell said they want to make the matches as accessible as possible.

“As the popularity of women’s football continues to rise, we want to make sure that young, aspiring local footballers get the chance to come and see some top-class women’s football right here on their doorstep,” she said.

“That is why we have chosen to give tickets to the Falkirk Foundation to distribute around local clubs and to give them the opportunity to enjoy the games.”

“With less than a fortnight to go to the semi-final, we are also encouraging as many people across Falkirk to come along and enjoy this cup experience.”

Tickets are £5 for adults and allow access to both games.

“We are pleased to work with SWF to ensure that youngsters will get the chance to see inspiring role models and continue to do our bit to help grow the game in our part of Scotland.”
