Season 3 - Episode 13: "If you switch off like you did last week then laser tag is gonna be rubbish!!" If yesterday was day 6 then today was day 7 on the advent calendar 😁 and we had a busy day planned for the under 9's, a Laser Tag Christmas party followed by a trip to burger king was on the cards, lots of fun for kids, double whoppers for the coaches! A festive treat for the kids after an intense start to the season... but first up, we had a quarter final to play! After la
Match report New Mills U14 v Atletico Middleton Presidents cup - 07/12/25
The Millers were in League Cup action against a team who had won all seven games played this season, so the challenge was clearly going to be a tough one on what was a tricky surface at the Rec. The Millers started the game brightly, playing some nice football but coming up against a strong opposition back line who defended their goal superbly. Atletico grew into the game and saw the woodwork rattled twice from distance with long-range efforts. The Millers battled hard from f
Match Report NMJFC U11 Girls vs Altringham FC Juniors U11s Girls Starling 06/12/25
A wet, unsettled day set the stage, with showers drifting in and out, we were also down to only 7 players at the start of the match, down to 5 by half-time, but never phased, the girls met these conditions with grit, determination and purpose. Jessica, guarding the net, delivered one of her most assured performances yet. She handled everything that came her way – one thundering shot even thumped off her chest – but she stayed composed, gathered the ball cleanly, and started

It was a chilly day at the Mike Doyle centre for this week's fixture against Bowden Athletic FC Blues. There were nine NMJFC U7's available this week, as there has for most of the season so far. Credit to the kids and the parents for their commitment! A quick chat with referee & the Bowden coach, and it was agreed to play 6v6 to give all the kids more game time, less of them waiting on side lines. Louie was our volunteer for goalkeeper in the first half, and with the low temp

Match report NMJFC U11 Hornets V Wythenshawe Wanderers - 15 / 11 / 2025
Saturday afternoon under the floodlights at Benchill (in Wythenshawe) was a great way to get back to the league campaign after we were on 'Cup Duty' against Bollie Bears then 'Friendly Duty' against High Lane over the last two-weeks. As Coaches, we were hoping the lads could carry their recent uprise in form into this game against a Wythenshawe side that quite simply blew The Hornets to smithereens on the opening day of this season! Much has been made of the slow start to th

Match report New Mills U11 Scorpions v Chinley U11 - 16/11/25
Again a familiar opponent in Chinley, we knew what to expect and started brightly. It was silent support weekend, so as coaches we said very little throughout the game (well, we tried to) and let the team encourage and direct each other. The game was end to end to begin with, a shot from Leo and equally at the other end a save from Frankie the cat….. seemed like rinse and repeat with another Leo shot and another excellent save from Frankie. Good pressure from New Mills saw o

NMJFC Hornets U11 V Bollington United Bears - Sandra Crowe KO Cup - 01/11/25
"We're going for the cup" was the cry from the coaches after a somewhat indifferent start to the season for our lads. They got off to a flyer when our Rocket slotted home an early penalty after Albie had been ambushed by the Bollington defence. Rocket was at it again with a perfect strike from distance. Our maestro kept the play alive then shifted the ball perfectly to Ronan who hit it first time and the ball nestled nicely in the back of the net. Ronan looked superb in the

It was Silent Supporters Week this week, and although we always love the backing from our parents, this was the girls’ moment to let their own voices fill the pitch. They rose to the challenge brilliantly, communicating with confidence and showing impressive teamwork from start to finish. We started today’s match with Poppy D in goal. She was nervous, but you wouldn’t have known it –her composure was outstanding. She pulled off a string of excellent saves, including a superb

On this Remembrance weekend, both teams stood side by side before kick-off, heads bowed in perfect silence to honour those who gave their today for our tomorrow. It was a moving moment of respect — a pause before an afternoon of football that would test skill, spirit and character. There was a brief delay before kick-off as the padlock code at Hollingworth FC refused to cooperate, but once solved, both sides were keen to get underway. From the first whistle, it was clear bo

The Millers were a little threadbare with several absences through injury for this home fixture with Middleton who sat above the Millers in the table and were unbeaten going into today’s game. The Millers started brightly and were passing the ball with purpose and intent. Darragh was terrorising the full back on their side and Bertie the same on the other. Mayson was working hard pressing and winning the ball back for the team. Bobby was controling midfield with great comp

It was another strong performance from the team this week, with every player showing determination, teamwork, and real spirit on the pitch. Stevie was solid in goal, pulling off some excellent one-handed saves in both halves. Her quick reactions and smart interceptions kept the opposition at bay, and her composure under pressure gave the defence confidence. At the back, Martha was exceptional – calm, controlled, and fearless. She made some crucial last-ditch tackles and is cl

All 7 girls turned up in force this weekend once again to take on Team Goal in what is only their 6th match together ever. It’s amazing to see how well this bunch are coming along in this opening season of their footballing journey.

What a morning!! A very different New Mills turned up this morning and the only silence we had was the 1 minute for Remembrance Sunday. No Rocco K and No David today. We missed them and looking forward to having them back. Let us tell you about the boys that did play. Rocco T - We talk about the strength he has built playing with us. We had more of that today.

In goal, Martha was once again a reliable presence - making a number of excellent saves and showing real composure with her passing and decision-making. Her bravery in blocking shots and reading the game kept the opposition at bay time and again. In defence, Poppy D and Seren formed a solid partnership. Poppy D show

We played Alderley United this weekend whose players didn’t fancy the rain as much and so we started the game playing 4 v 4 with 3 of our girls having to wait to get going on the subs bench. Emily started in goal making some great saves from the Alderley attackers. In front of her we had Nora on the right and Skye on the left, both making some fantastic tackles and running

Now we’re in the Sunday Stockport Metro league, cup games are played during the season rather than a cup final at season end. This adds some spice over the course of the season…. We were hoping the Scorpions were up for it. A much shuffled Scorpions took to the field, minus coach Jordan and our main striker Rocco T. To compensate we drafted in coach Phil from the Hornets, Oliver L and Finley (thank you to all for assisting) Earliest kick off we’ve had since our first game of

This was a really strong performance from the girls who impressed with their teamwork and passing. The Millers managed to find the net six times but in truth it could have been more. Some great football was played today. Early on Brooke, Elsie, Esmee and Lily D were linking up well in attacking areas and looking a threat. After a few missed chances the first goal arrived, Brooke was on hand to score after the keeper made a good save. Bollington remained dangerous and had a go
