Nantwich Town Women capped their final away trip of 2025 with a confident 2–0 victory over Macclesfield FC Women at the Leasing.com Stadium.
The victory reinforces the Dabbers’ position at the top of the North West Women’s Regional League Division One South.
Nantwich had suffered their first league defeat of the season last time out — and they bounced back in style.
With Jo Case and Josie Alderman returning to the starting XI and Beth Grice making her second start, Nantwich quickly found their rhythm, dominating the opening 45 minutes.
Despite their control, the score remained level at the interval.
The breakthrough came in the second half.
Josie Alderman fired Nantwich ahead, before top scorer Amanda Fallon doubled the lead to secure the three points and chalk up the team’s 10th league win of the campaign.
Midfielder Meg Baldwin was named GOAT Player of the Match for a commanding display, controlling possession and breaking up Macclesfield attacks.
Manager Dan Mellor said after the match: “That was exactly the response we wanted.
“We dominated from start to finish and controlled the game in all the areas where we fell short last week.
“A 2–0 win away at Macclesfield is never easy, so the players deserve a lot of credit for the discipline and intensity they showed.
“Finishing 2025 at the top of the table is satisfying, of course, but we’re under no illusions there’s still a lot of work ahead if we want to be there when it really matters at the finish line.
“Thank you as always to our travelling support, this isn’t possible with you.”
The result keeps Nantwich Town Women at the summit with 32 points from 13 matches — 10 wins, two draws, one defeat, and an impressive +39 goal difference.
The Dabbers have two consecutive home games at the Swansway Stadium fixtures against Warrington Town Women and Macclesfield FC Women.
