Weymouth Football Club is delighted to announce that AFC Bournemouth Women will play their home fixtures at the Bob Lucas Stadium.
This is a hugely exciting development for both clubs and a proud moment for everyone associated with Weymouth Football Club. We look forward to welcoming AFC Bournemouth Women, and supporters to our stadium and making them feel very much at home.
The Bob Lucas Stadium is, and will remain, the home of Weymouth Football Club. As we continue to grow and develop our club, both on and off the pitch, this partnership represents another important step in building a stronger and more sustainable future for the Terras.
Hosting AFC Bournemouth Women will provide Weymouth Football Club with an important opportunity to generate additional income, which can be reinvested directly into the Bob Lucas Stadium. This will help us modernise and improve our facilities, bringing the stadium up to the standards required for the growth of both.
This partnership brings together two ambitious football clubs, each firmly focused on its own progression, with ambitions that sit naturally alongside one another. Weymouth Football Club remains committed to strengthening its foundations and creating the best possible future for our teams, supporters and community.
At the same time, we are proud to provide AFC Bournemouth Women with a strong and stable home from which they can continue their own development.
We feel this partnership is a fantastic step forward for AFC Bournemouth Women. As a club with ambition and an exceptionally bright future, we will support them every step of the way as they build their support, strengthen their local identity as they progress towards the WSL.
Women’s football continues to grow at an extraordinary pace, and we are proud that the Bob Lucas Stadium will play a part in that journey. The agreement will bring more high-quality football to Weymouth, attract new supporters to the stadium and inspire the next generation of girls and young women across Dorset.
This is an exciting new chapter for the Bob Lucas Stadium and another positive step in the continued growth and development of Weymouth Football Club.
We look forward to beginning what we hope will be a successful and long-lasting relationship between Weymouth Football Club and AFC Bournemouth Women.
Welcome to the Bob Lucas Stadium.
