🖤🤍 FULL TIME | Sheffield Wednesday Ladies Reserves 3–1 Penistone Church Women A frustrating afternoon for Church, who competed well against a strong Sheffield Wednesday side but ultimately came away empty-handed. Wednesday started the brighter of the two teams, enjoying plenty of possession without creating any clear-cut opportunities. Church gradually grew into the game, with Abby Mills going close with a powerful effort from distance after Wednesday had cleared their line

Thank you to everyone for observing it so respectfully. 🌺 On the pitch, Church are getting closer and closer.

⚽🖤🤍 FULL TIME | Penistone Church Women 2–5 SJR Worksop Community A spirited performance from Church against the league’s form side, but defensive frailties at set pieces ultimately proved costly. Worksop arrived at the Memorial Ground with a 100% league record, having conceded just one goal all season. We knew it would be a tough afternoon, but Church certainly gave the visitors plenty to think about. The game got off to a frantic start, with Worksop taking an early lead fr

Wombwell Town 2 - 1 Penistone Church Our best performance of the season and, on the balance of play, the girls deserved at least a draw, if not all three points. Unlike some earlier games this season, Church were straight into it from the first whistle and largely controlled the first half. The defenders cleared their lines with confidence, the midfield was always looking forward, and the attackers kept running into space. Olivia in goal was always on hand to sweep things up.

⚽🖤🤍 MATCH DAY – BACK IN ACTION THIS SUNDAY! 🤍🖤⚽ After last Sunday’s home fixture against Rossington Main Ladies Reserves fell victim to a waterlogged pitch, our Women will be hoping to get back to action this weekend as we welcome SJR Worksop Community. Our visitors have made an excellent start to the season, winning all their league games so far and conceding just one goal. It’s a good record, but we’ve got plenty of belief in our young squad, and we’re looking forward t

⚽🖤🤍 FULL TIME | Rossington Main Ladies Reserves 0–0 Penistone Church Women Short on numbers, but certainly not short on quality as Church battled their way to a hard-earned point on the road. With just 12 players available, squad depth was always going to be a challenge, but there was absolutely no shortage of quality, determination or commitment from those who pulled on the black and white shirt. There was a well-deserved first start for Macy Jones, stepping up from our Un

Despite a difficult result, the girls showed plenty of determination, teamwork and moments of real quality in yesterday’s game against Rotherham Town. The scoreline may not have gone our way, but there were positives to take from a performance where the team continued to work hard, support each other and look for opportunities right until the final whistle. Emily and Lily both produced some excellent runs through on goal, showing great pace and intent to get in behind the opp

Penistone Church Whites progressed into the Quarter Finals of the County Cup after edging out division 2 rivals Dearne in a closely contested game at the memorial ground. Penistone started the match much the brighter team and were unlucky not to be ahead in the opening minutes when a header from Akira White hit the crossbar. More opportunities followed as Dearne struggled at the back to deal with the bobbly surface and it was no less than Penistone deserved to take the lead w

Church travelled to runaway leagues leaders Millmoor juniors and were under pressure for the majority of the game against a quality outfit who have been playing together for several years. It was a great learning curve for this developing squad which includes 5 girls who only started playing the game this summer. Church will have learnt plenty from the last 10minutes where they put the opposition under constant pressure and will look to take that energy and determination into

⚽🖤🤍 FULL TIME | Penistone Church Women 5–3 Dearne & District Ladies A hat-trick for Heidi Proost and a double from Emma Allcock secured a deserved three points for Church in an entertaining eight-goal encounter at the Memorial Ground.

Church responded almost immediately, taking just three minutes to draw level. Heidi Proost cut inside

Penistone Blacks 6 Wombwell Town 0 Penistone Blacks delivered their best performance of the season so far with a 6-0 home win against Wombwell - much to the delight of birthday boy Wes 🎉 and his fellow home supporters.

Penistone continued to dominate the game before Georgia pulled off a great save from a Wombwell counter-attack to preserve th

AFC Bentley 3 - 0 PCFC women U14 whites U14 whites made the longest trip of the season to face an in-form Bentley side who raced into a 3-0 lead before half time benefitting from a strong wind which similarly made it difficult for Church to clear their lines. We were much improved in the second half; being much more challenging and aggressive in tackles, creating opportunities although that pesky wind didn’t return to give any favours our way. Standout performances came from

Church were on the road this week for game 5 of the league season as they looked to keep their unbeaten run intact against last seasons Division 3 champions, Killamarsh Dynamos. The girls looked strong from the off and were rewarded in the 3rd minute when Ella Darrington slotted home after being played in by Freya Wright. With Penistone continuing to apply pressure Gabi Snape and Ella Darrington combined down the right before setting up Kevayah Smith to finish smartly from th
