Ross County roll out red carpet for the girls

ROSS County is rolling out a special red carpet for some of its female fans this month.

The Ladies Day at the Global Energy Stadium will also hit the target for Maggie’s Highlands as funds raised from the November 24 event will boost the charity’s coffers.

The Championship side entertain Dunfermline Athletic on the same day, ensuring there will be a match-day buzz about the place.

The club’s commercial manager, Lorraine Christie, said: “It is hoped that this year’s Ladies Day will raise a significant amount for Maggie’s Highlands.

“It’s a charity very close to the hearts of our players – many of whom are regular visitors to the centre – as well as supporters and directors.”

Long-term supporters of the Raigmore-based centre – which offers free essential support to people from throughout the Highlands living with cancer – Ross County fans have raised over £45,000 for the charity in the last two seasons.

Maggie’s fundraising manager, Andrew Benjamin, said: “It’s fantastic that

Ross County continue to support our centre, which relies entirely on donations to offer essential support and advice for people

living with and affected by cancer.

“The season tickets were well used last season and it was great to see some families going through some really difficult times able to enjoy a day out at the football.”

This year, due to demand, men are also being invited to attend Ladies Day’ for the first time with a number of men-only table already booked in. Tickets cost £95 per person.
