The invitation was in celebration of last week’s International Women’s Day. More than 350 members and their families were at the match.

Twenty-four girls had the added excitement of being selected to act as mascots and ball kids. Members were also given the honour of choosing the player of the match, Megan Walsh.

Since Sussex guides attended last year’s event, almost 200 girls have achieved their Football Challenge badge which was produced with the encouragement and interest from those at Brighton & Hove Albion together with the other Girlguiding counties in Sussex. The Challenge is all about teamwork and fun, which is at the heart of Girlguiding.
