All those that take part will also receive free tickets to support the Blues as they take on Liverpool on Wednesday night.
The Blues got the second half of the season off to a flying start on Sunday, defeating Chelsea 2-0 and recording their largest attendance of the campaign.
Everton’s win takes them within two points of Chelsea and has set them up nicely for Wednesday’s Merseyside derby at home to Liverpool, who are four points adrift at the foot of the table.
The match kicks off at 7pm at Marine FC in Crosby and Evertonians can come along to support the girls for bargain prices, with tickets just £3 for adults and £1 for juniors (under 16s).
