North Wales obviously not good enough again.

Wales have announced the venues for their opening three home 2023 Women's World Cup qualifying matches.
Wales, who are aiming to reach a first major finals, will host Kazakhstan on Friday, 17 September, 2021 and Greece on Friday, 26 November at Parc y Scarlets in Llanelli. Estonia will visit the Cardiff City Stadium on Tuesday, 26 October.

Do they have the "four sided stadium" rule, same as the mens football? A rule that doesn't apply to under 21s and friendlies.

There is no four sided stadium rule for international football.

Gibraltar stadium has two sides. Braga’s stadium used for euro 2004 has two sides.

I thought "not four sided" was given as a reason Wrexham couldn't host competitive Internationals a few years ago. Or was it that the Racecourse needed the fourth side to reach minimum required capacity?

I did find it cringe that everyone jumped on the bandwagon wanting the game in Wrexham when they needed to win it to qualify. There was a women's game up here before Covid iirc, was it well attended?

Two of the dates listed a day before home games, not impossible we said no if we're worried about the pitch.
