Thursday night saw us travel to Workington to take on Penrith Titans in the final of the league cup. Right from the first whistle, the game was very end to end and we had to defend compactly to deal with some impressive football from Penrith. The majority of the first half saw us work our way into the game and try to break down a solid Penrith back line. A number of changes saw us create a few chances after some good play from Kerri Mallinson and Abi Telford at striker and on the left wing.

We went into half time at 0-0 and took the positives from a solid defensive display. The second half saw Penrith play some fantastic football and we struggled to deal with their use of the wide areas of the pitch. We went 1-0 down after a good ball through the middle of the field as calmly finished into the bottom right corner. As usual, the girls showed some real grit and worked together to try and get an equaliser, even changing the line up around. However, we went 2-0 after a fantastic long-range effort. Unfortunately, the score line remained the same until the end of the match and the final whistle saw Penrith named league cup winners.

Congratulations to Penrith on an impressive campaign this season!

The girls have had another fantastic season themselves. Going unbeaten in the league for the second year in a row! Well done lasses, you should all be proud of yourselves.

Also a massive thank you to everyone who as supported us this season.

The leauge title is secured!! 🧡🖤

Last night the girls travelled to barrow to take on Vickerstown in our penultimate leauge game.

After a long journey down the girls started of the game a little bit behind pace and went 1-0 down quite quickly after a good run from one of the Vickerstown forward players.

From there on we found our tempo and started to play attacking football which eventually resulted in us levelling up the game after a goal mouth scramble was turned into the net by Chelsea Norris. We took the lead not long after when the ball fell to right back Vicky Jackson who hit it brilliantly and found the back of the net on the fly from inside her own half! Not a bad way to mark her first goal for the club!

The second half brought with it a more direct style of play from us and we fought to win every loose ball. Some persistent pressing and brilliant two touch passing from the centre of the pitch meant Katie Sibley found herself behind the Vickerstown back line and found the top corner from the left wing.

The girls fought hard from here to the final whistle and defended brilliantly to deal with some good use of the wide areas from the home team. The game finished with a 3-2 win that brought with it the leauge title with a game to spare. A huge congratulations to everyone involved with the club and massive thank you to everyone who has supported us through what has been our toughest season yet!

Our player of the match was Chelsea Murray who played a number of positions and didn’t stop running for the entirety of the game.

Also a special mention goes to Emily Howarth who played her final game for the team as she prepares to move home. Thank you for all your hard work Em, you’ve been fantastic and will be missed by all of us!!

Well done to Vickerstown and good luck for the remainder of your games.

We face Xtreme fitness ladies next Wednesday as we look to remain undefeated for the whole season. 7.15 KO at the sheepmount.

On Wednesday we travelled to Penrith in what was a top of the table clash with Penrith Titans. In what was an extremely high pressure game, the girls started on top and went 1-0 up within ten minutes after a fantastic strike from Nicola Waugh.

The girls worked hard to keep the ball and make some quick passes against a lively and high pressing Penrith. Nicola netted again after a brilliant run from the left wing and a great bit of determination in the middle of the park from Stacey Harkness Grant.

We took the 2-0 lead into half time and the second half brought one of the most determined performances we’ve put on all season. Penrith made some great runs and leathal passes and made the game 2-1 mid way through the second half. The girls put their heads down and saw out the game with grit and class thanks to a brilliant team effort and great saves from goal keeper Sophie Paton.

Well done to Penrith on a great performance. We now sit four points ahead at the top of the table and travel to Barrow next week to take on Vickerstown.

On Wednesday night we took on Whitehaven AFC Ladies Blues. We started of positively as did Whitehaven which resulted in a very end to end opening ten minutes. Whitehaven were determined to play out from the back and after a good passage of play for them they won a corner and went 1-0 up from a goof header at the back post. However, we did not panic and used the next 15 minutes to regroup and start to play ourselves into the game.

We came close after a number of good crosses from the right and left wings and our equaliser came after a determined run from Emily Howarth up the left wing resulted in Chelsea Norris receiving the ball on the edge if the box. She made no mistake from this distance and found the bottom corner. We went into half time with the score line 1-1 and felt confident with our plan for the second half.

From the restart we dominated the rest of the game with Whitehaven rarely getting out of their own half. We started to find our forward players brilliantly and made some penetrating passes through the middle of the pitch. Some fantastic determination resulted in us having a number of near misses, but we managed to take the lead after a goal mouth scramble resulted in us finding the bottom corner again. We then sealed our win after a corner from the right side found Nicola Waugh who finished it off in her usual calm manner. Another fantastic win for the girls who played with determination, confidence and worked hard for each other from the first minute.

Well done to Whitehaven and good look for the rest of your games!

We go again next Thursday against Penrith Titians. 7.15 KO.

Wednesday night saw us take on Carlisle United Ladies Development and come away with a 3-0 win.

As so many of our games do, it started of a bit end to end but as the first half went on we managed to play free flowing football and confine Carlisle to their own half. We went 1-0 up quite quickly and from there on continued to create chances thanks to some fantastic runs and strong defending from back to front. We took a 2-0 lead into half time.

The second half brought more of the same as we won every loose ball and managed to work our way up the pitch using both wings. The girls put in nothing short of a fantastic effort in hot conditions and didn’t stop running for each other and were rewarded with another goal to seal the win.

Well done to Carlisle and good luck for the rest of your games.

We go again next Thursday away to Vickerstown. 7.15 KO. UTN 🧡🖤
