Barry Town United's first away game of the Adran Premier season has been switched to the Racecourse at Wrexham.

Stevie McCarthy Campbell's side will take on the Hollywood-backed club in a game being streamed live by S4C's Sgorio.

It was due to be held at the former Cefn Druids ground at the Rock in Rhosymedre, which was brought up by the Reds over the summer and intended as a new permanent home for their women's team.

But in a statement on Thursday night, a Wrexham spokesperson said maintenance work was still required, adding "the match will now be a first opportunity for manager Jenny Sugarman and our summer recruits to play at the world’s oldest international football stadium".

Barry will be hoping for an immediate response from their opening 4-0 defeat at home to six-time league champions Swansea City last Sunday, which saw goalkeeper Molly Arnesen sent off.

Kick off is at 5.10pm with the game being streamed live via Sgorio's online platforms, including S4C Clic, Youtube and Facebook.

Barry Town United's men will also get the Sgorio treatment on Saturday when their home game against Bala is streamed live at 12.30pm.
