Reading FC Women and Woodley United Ladies will enter the competition at the second qualifying round stage,
Reacting to the draw, Duncan Owen, head of women and girls football at Ashridge Park, told Wokingham Today; “ We’re pleased to be playing another team from step 7, but the most important thing for us is to finally have the chance of playing an FA cup tie in front of our own fans after missing out on that last year.
“We’re fortunate to have a great set of supporters, so to have the chance to share this with them will be great.
“We are hoping it will be a fantastic occasion for women’s football in Wokingham.”
Ties are set to be played on Sunday, September 7. Winning clubs will receive £1,800 in prize money, with £450 awarded to the losing clubs.
