Rivals Sheffield Wednesday will be the opponents on Sunday, May 12 (6pm), with the #HerGameToo Shield going to the winners.

The Millers beat Mansfield Town on penalties at the NYS last summer to win the trophy in front of 1,124 spectators – a record for a RU Women’s game – and the turnout is expected to be even greater this time around.

The fixture will be all ticket, with sales online only.

Meanwhile, two supporters buses are running to the team’s big end-of-season cup final.

The Millers take on Kettering Town at Arnold Town FC on Sunday, May 26 (2pm) in the final of the East Midlands Regional League Plate.
