Gillingham: It is with great regret we have decided to no longer operate our senior ladies football team

Gillingham have issued the following statement, concerning their Ladies team.

“In line with other measures taken, or in the process of being taken due to current circumstances, and in regards to the restructuring of the football club, it is with great regret we have decided to no longer operate our senior ladies football team with immediate effect, and for the foreseeable future.

“I would like to thank the ladies, management and staff for their hard work and efforts over the past few years and wish them well for the future.

“We understand the team will continue under an independent structure, managed by Mr Josh Oatham, and of course we will follow their progress with interest and wish them continued success.

“The Women's National League have been advised of our decision and have sanctioned the new structure/team, which will retain its current league status.”
