The Chairman of The FA David Bernstein spoke today on the return of The FA Women’s Super League season this weekend and championed another exciting summer ahead for women’s football.

The FA has this week formally opened the application process for all women’s football clubs to apply to enter The FA Women’s Super League (FA WSL) from 2014 onwards.

It was a busy final weekend of action in the FA WSL with teams looking to qualify for Europe, remain unbeaten and end the season on a high.

Arsenal Ladies are hosting Doncaster Rovers Belles this Sunday, September 30, in what is set to be an exciting and potentially title-deciding clash between the two FA WSL sides.

Still trying to come to terms with the significantly reduced amount of women’s sport on television now the Games are over?

Arsenal ladies moved one step closer to retaining their FA WSL title following a tight 2-1 win over Lincoln Ladies at the weekend.

Everton dropped two crucial points in their chase for second spot at the weekend when they drew with 1-1 with Doncaster at the Arriva Stadium.

Birmingham City Ladies boss David Parker hailed an “absolutely magnificent” performance from his players after Rachel Williams’ late header earned the Midlands side a 1-0 win at Chelsea.

Doncaster Rovers Belles manager John Buckley was delighted with his side’s performance in their 2-1 win at home to Lincoln Ladies - a result which lifts them off the bottom of the table.

Goal-scorer Kelly Smith revealed Arsenal’s second-half turnaround came as a result of the side going “a little bit mad”.
