Senior figures at Wolves will meet their women’s team tonight after it emerged the club never applied for a licence to apply for potential promotion to the Championship.
Wolves finished second in the Premier Division North, missing out on top spot and promotion to the Second Tier by three points.
The players, however, were dismayed to find out just before their final game their promotion challenge would be futile as the club never completed the paperwork needed to satisfy WPLL requirements to play in the division above.
SSN understands Wolves chairman Jeff Shi was unhappy with the terms that came with the licence structure, which include funding, player contract, commercial and medical requirements.
Meeting those targets would have meant a vast increase in funding, something which would have been difficult to agree to considering the paperwork had to be completed in February when Wolves’ future Premier League status was questionable.
Wolves players will meet with sporting director Matt Hobbs and director of professional development Matt Jackson to air their grievances and seek guarantees of future backing.
