Weekend preview: Women host Shaftesbury in final league game
Royal Wootton Bassett Town complete what has been a highly successful South West Regional Women's Football League Division One Eastern campaign on Sunday when they welcome Shaftesbury (Gerard Buxton Sports Ground AGP, 2pm kick off). Having secured runners-up spot in the league, Bassett will be looking to end their season on a high - and complete a season double over their opponents who they beat 2-1 in Dorset back in January. Adam Wood's side will have to be at their best to record a final three points of the campaign though. Indeed, in their previous meeting Bassett had to come from behind to win, with maximum points eventually being secured courtesy of a late Maddy Elliott strike. Admission on Sunday is £4 for adults, £2 for concessions and free for RWBTFC youth members. There may be a big game involving the Men's First Team to come on Tuesday - but the Women's side are equally deserving of your support. So please do come along to cheer them on for one final time this season!
