The show home launch event took place on Saturday 17 June.

SJR Worksop Women, who are based at QTC Rockware Stadium off Sandy Lane, play in Division 1 North of the East Midlands Women’s Regional League and will start training for the 2023/24 season soon.
Andrew Guest, Chairman of SJR Worksop FC, said: “We’re grateful Bellway reached out to us and thought it would be a great opportunity for us to have a social outing away from the pitch and check out the new show bedroom dedicated to women’s football.
“Feedback from the girls has been very positive. They enjoyed visiting the development and were made to feel special.
