We're hearing that girls football in Rutland has grown massively since the last Women's Euros

A football club in Rutland has added four girls teams since the last Women's Euros.

England play their first Euros game tonight against France and local clubs are hoping for another spike in interest as more people watch the games.

For the girls to be able to get involved and join in is really important

Before the Euros Royce Rangers Football Club had no teams specifically for girls.

But, after seeing the lionesses triumph, there was soon a peak in interest from girls wanting to play.

Now the club has four teams and is about to introduce a fifth and hopes to expand even further.

We pride ourselves on being a club for all and football is for all

Jack Crankshaw, Chairman of the Royce Rangers Football Club, said:

"For the girls to be able to get involved and join in and feel like they're equal to the men's side of the game is really important because it is and we're hoping to push that further and further."

"Obviously the media exposure really pushed the growth and gave the girls confidence that they can get involved in football."

"We pride ourselves on being a club for all and football is for all."
