Newquay AFC Ladies celebrate promotion

Friday, 6 June 2025 13:42

Newquay AFC Ladies are enjoying a well earned rest after securing promotion to the Premier Division of the Cornwall Ladies League.

The team, formed just a year ago, finished second in Division One - just one point off the top - but went the entire season unbeaten, with a remarkable goal difference of 58.

Manager Lucie Beesley has praised the squad for their hard work and dedication. Star striker Liz Mears ended the season top of the Golden Boot table, with 31 goals and 19 assists.

Now preparing for the step up, the club is looking to recruit new players for the new season with training beginning on the 8th July.

Contact the club here.
