South Shields Women hope to make history this Sunday when they take on Leeds Modernians Women in the NERWFL League Cup Final (2pm kick-off). The Mariners reached the Final after defeating Birtley Town Ladies 2-1 just over a fortnight ago, while Leeds Modernians knocked out Bradford City AFC Women on penalties last week. To get to this stage, Shields have been victorious against Wallsend BC Women, Spennymoor Town Ladies, Sunderland West End Ladies as well as Birtley Town. Leed

South Shields Women Head Coach Alex Miller wants her team to use Sunday’s 6-4 defeat to Brunsmeer Athletic Women as one of many “learning experiences.” The Mariners embarked on their longest trip in the NERWFL Premier Division and ultimately went back empty-handed, after a clinical Brunsmeer outfit went in at the break 3-0 up. Although they netted four times following the restart, Shields conceded another three as the opportunity to mount a courageous comeback escaped them.

South Shields Women conclude their 2025/26 NERWFL Premier Division campaign with a trip to Brunsmeer Athletic Women this Sunday (2pm kick-off). The lasses are yet to make their longest trip of the season - in the league at least - and they will now come up against the Sheffield-based side. They made history last time out as the Mariners reached the NERWFL League Cup Final with a 2-1 win against a hard-working Birtley Town Ladies side, but the focus now is on securing three po

South Shields Women aim to book their spot in the NERWFL League Cup Final when they take on Birtley Town Ladies on Thursday night (7:30pm kick-off). The lasses will play at Ford Hub hopeful of getting the result they need, but standing in their way are a resolute Birtley Town side who are undefeated in the NERWFL Northern Division. In fact, tomorrow’s visitors are currently on a 15-game winning streak in all competitions - including a victory against Alnwick Town Ladies in th

South Shields Women host Ossett United Women this Sunday in what will be their penultimate game in the league (2:30pm kick-off). It is the lasses’ last home match in the NERWFL Premier Division, and they will be looking to end the season on a high note following recent difficult results. While there is next week’s NERWFL League Cup Semi-Final tie at home to Birtley Town Ladies to look forward to, attention fully remains on the task at hand this weekend. Sunday’s visitors suff

South Shields Women Head Coach Alex Miller was in a reflective mood following her side's 4-1 defeat to Alnwick Town Ladies in the NERWFL Premier Division on Sunday. The lasses battled well throughout the first-half, but they fell short after the restart as the visitors piled the pressure on and scored three times before the 60th minute. Madison Bouggess brought one back 14 minutes later, but their three-goal cushion was restored with three minutes to spare. “Tough result toda

South Shields Women return to Downhill Hub this Sunday for their penultimate home game in the NERWFL Premier Division against Alnwick Town Ladies (2:30pm kick-off). The lasses have just three games to contend with before the league season is complete, and first up are an Alnwick Town side where entertainment has certainly been provided thus far. In the previous two meetings, the Mariners have equalised late on - in the 93rd minute back in September, and then in the 89th minut

South Shields Women are gearing up for their final few games of the 2025/26 season - we caught up with Head Coach Alex Miller to discuss how things are currently going. Q: A busy run-in as we look to finish this season off strongly; what is the mood like in the camp at the minute? “I think overall the mood is still relatively positive, despite our challenges that we’ve had recently. “And despite a tough run that we’ve got coming up, the girls are excited - as they always are

South Shields Women have little time to rest as they host Thornaby FC Women at Downhill Hub on Sunday (2:30pm kick-off). The lasses played against Sunderland West End Ladies on Thursday night in the NERWFL League Cup Quarter-Final, and now they return to NERWFL Premier Division action this weekend against the league’s second-placed side. Thornaby have only dropped points in two games this season as they continue to charge down Bradford City AFC Women for the league title. Whe

South Shields Women visit Sunderland West End Ladies at Washington Hub in the NERWFL League Cup Quarter-Final this Thursday (7:30pm kick-off). The Mariners will look to shake off Sunday’s defeat to Bradford City AFC Women, while West End come into the game having won last time out, when they beat Wallsend BC Women 2-1 away from home. The winner of the tie will face Birtley Town Ladies in the Semi-Final, after they defeated Alnwick Town Ladies 4-1 in their Quarter-Final match

South Shields Women host Harrogate Town AFC Women in the NERWFL Premier Division on Sunday (2pm kick-off). After an almost 100-day wait, the lasses return to Harton Welfare to face the West Yorkshire side. The Mariners lost 3-0 against promotion hopefuls Thornaby FC Women last time out, so they will be looking ahead to this game as an opportunity to get back to winning ways. Sunday's visitors come into the match following a 2-2 draw against bottom side Sunderland West End Lad

South Shields Women visit Thornaby FC Women for the first time this season on Sunday (2pm kick-off). The lasses are hoping to shake off last week’s DCFA Women’s Challenge Cup exit with a strong performance against NERWFL Premier Division title-contenders Thornaby. This weekend’s hosts sit second in the division, with a remarkable 25 points picked up from their first 10 games - Shields find themselves in fifth place having recorded 17 points over the same period. Thornaby are

South Shields Women host Durham Cestria in the Semi-Final of the DCFA Women’s Challenge Cup on Sunday (2pm kick-off). The Mariners are potentially two games away from lifting silverware this season but they will first have to navigate a strong Cestria side who play one division above them. Shields breezed past Washington FC Women and Sunderland West End Ladies - both games at home - in the two previous rounds to get to this stage. Meanwhile, Cestria were awarded a walkover wi

Update 11/01: Both games have been postponed as a result of the inclement weather conditions. South Shields Women visit the NERWFL Premier Division leaders Bradford City AFC Women this Sunday (2pm kick-off). The Mariners embark on one of their longest trips of the season to face a team who have won all eight of their league matches so far. Bradford City sit top of the pile by seven points, with one game in hand over second-placed Spennymoor Town Ladies ahead of the league res

South Shields Women are back on the road as they turn their focus towards the NERWFL League Cup against Wallsend BC Women this Sunday. The revived tournament sees the Mariners enter in the Second Round and they come up against a Wallsend BC side who are winless in the league so far. Sunday’s hosts have instead found their form in the Adobe Women’s FA Cup, where they have mounted an incredible run to the Second Round Proper. Shields are coming off a 3-1 win against Ossett Unit
