(playing in Division Two), while the League’s new names in Division Three are AFC Norton
Woodseats, Mind Over Matter and West End Terriers.
Wakefield AFC Res were Division One’s highest scorers, winning 8-1 at Sheffield Utd
Community Res. Neve Renwick bagged a hat-trick with braces by Nicole Moffatt and Danielle
Shepherd plus a single from Amelia Hunt completing the away goals. Hannah Barden scored the
consolation for the hosts. Chesterfield enjoyed a winning debut with Aimee Stack (2), Katie
Barker and Chloe Foster on target in a 4-2 success over Middlewood whose goals came from Evie
Asquith and Ash Mills, the latter, a promising youngster for Doncaster Rovers Belles and also
England youth teams in the mid-2010s before a bone condition prevented her playing in the top
two tiers. Phoebe Sneddon, at Belles last season, has joined AFC Bentley and she netted their
equaliser in the 1-1 draw against promoted Kiveton Park for whom Sara Tyler scored. Bradie
Wild netted both, including a penalty, in Brunmeer’s 2-1 home win over Barnsley Women’s
