Grimsby Town Women are pleased to announce their pre-season schedule ahead of the 2025-26 season, which kicks off on Sunday 7th September.

Ben Thomas’ side will kick-off their preparations when they welcome Rossington Main to Clee Fields on Sunday 13th July, before travelling to Kiveton Park a week later.

Doncaster Belles Development will be the team’s next test towards the end of July, followed by a meet up with last season’s East Midlands Womens Regional Football League Division One North Champions Gainsborough Trinity.

The Mariners will then travel to both Stamford and Sleaford, the first of which they faced in pre-season before the 2024-25 campaign.

Rotherham will be the visitors to Clee Fields on Sunday 24th August, before the final pre-season test away at Ossett United, who Town faced in the third qualifying round of the Adobe Women’s FA Cup last season.
