FA WNL Northern Premier Division title-chasers Wolves Women have submitted their promotion application to WSL 2.
The application is part of the process requiring clubs in the FAWNL Premier Divisions to demonstrate their ability to meet the WSL’s ‘Key Minimum Requirements’ in governance, performance, facilities, and long-term sustainability before securing a place in the second tier.
To be successful in their application, Wolves are required to demonstrate off-pitch operational readiness as well as sporting performance – by finishing top of the FA WNL Northern Premier Division or winning the third tier play-offs.
Technical director Matt Jackson told wolves.co.uk: “It’s taken a huge amount of work from many people across the club to put together a comprehensive bid for promotion.
“Since last season we’ve been working towards this moment, doing the groundwork to put us into a position where we could support the bid. In that time, we’ve hired full-time, dedicated women’s staff to assist the process, and it’s been a fantastic, collective job to complete a detailed and all-encompassing piece of work.
“Our women’s first-team have done a fantastic job to put us in a position, once more, where we’re fighting to get promoted to WSL 2, and we’ll be supporting them all the way in their bid to go up during the remainder of the season.”
