Before West Ham United Women's final match of the season, FC Redwing Girls, a Sister Club of the team, visited Chadwell Heath.
FC Redwing, who are based in Billericay, Essex, were given a tour of the facilities by General Manager Aidan Boxall and had the opportunity to speak to the first-team squad after they had finished their training session.
And the Hammers weren't the only ones that were preparing for a big match - FC Redwing's U11's team battled it out for their divisional cup the following day, and won!
A MASSIVE thanks to our sister club @westhamwomen for inviting our @fcredwinggirls U11s to meet them at training today.

Everyone made it a very special day to celebrate our girls making their first cup final tomorrow.
The girls are buzzing!#weareredwingers #coyi #westhamwomen pic.twitter.com/UO4XbKEv8m
Boxall had previously headed out to Billericay to take some of their young players through a training session.
FC Redwing are the second Sister Club to visit the team's training base, with Broomfield Girls FC being shown around the facility earlier in the season.
The Sister Club programme sees local clubs receive tickets for West Ham Women’s home matches at Victoria Road, as well as benefiting from player appearances, coaching sessions and more.
West Ham United Women are currently looking to support the development of women's and girls' football in East London and Essex. We are hoping that this alliance will help with the development of local players, providing opportunities to young players, as well as growing our existing fanbase by offering free and discounted tickets to our partner clubs.
