Ladies Cup

This year’s competition was hosted by Cammell Laird 1907. With holders Crewe Alexandra Ladies taking on record winners Tranmere Rovers Ladies.

The game was a close affair, with both teams creating chances early on. Crewe opened the scoring shortly before half time and never looked back. Tranmere battled back and almost equalised, but could not quite get the crucial goal.

Crewe added a second midway through the second half to secure a third straight title.

Amateur Cup

Witton Albion FC played host to the final between Knutsford FC and Vauxhall Motors FC.

It was a closely fought contest with both teams scoring in the first half to make it 1-1 at the break. The second half brought many chances but neither could break the deadlock.

The final went into extra time and with only a few minutes until penalties, a penalty was awarded to Knutsford after the striker was brought down in the box after being clean through on goal.

Knutsford converted the penalty and were then crowned the 2017/18 champions.
