Our U15โ€™s also topped the weekend off with a win!

We consolidate our position with a hard fought win. A first half strike from Bobby Barnes opened the scoring and second half goals from Joe Palich and Noah Cronshaw made the game safe before a late Stan Barnes screamer secured the 3 points ๐Ÿ”ตโšฝ

We again thank sponsors .summit and AJC Cleaning Services for their support.

DARWEN 2โ€“4 NELSON U18s

What a result for the Nelson boys!

A tough away trip against an unbeaten Darwen side sitting top of the league, and with several players unavailable, Nelson travelled with just 14 players and a change of formation.

A shaky start, but once the boys settled, they started playing some superb possession football. Sharples opened the scoring from the spot after being brought down in the box before doubling the lead with a clinical finish from the edge of the area. Duerden then made it 3โ€“0 with a brilliant diving header from a superb Jack Lownsborough cross!

Darwen fought back after the break with two goals against the run of play, but Nelson kept playing their football, creating chances and controlling possession. C. Lownsborough grabbed the fourth to seal a massive three points! ๐Ÿ’ช

Some outstanding football on display today against previously unbeaten opposition, but Nelson simply had too much quality!

๐Ÿค BUILDING COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS

This season, one of our key focuses at Nelson FC is strengthening our links with the local community and encouraging more people to get involved with their local non league football club.

Over the past month, weโ€™ve been working with media students from Burnley College, giving them the opportunity to gain valuable experience and put their skills into practice.

In return, the students have produced some fantastic graphics for our upcoming fixtures, and weโ€™re delighted to support their development while benefiting from their creativity and talent.

A huge thank you to the students and staff at Burnley College for their work! ๐Ÿ‘ Weโ€™re looking forward to building on this partnership and seeing what else we can achieve together.

๐ŸŽฅ You may have also spotted Henry!
On our home match days, Henry can often be seen behind the camera, carrying out our post match interviews, over our PA systems or tweeting match commentary! Henry has joined us as a media volunteer and has been brilliant so far this season!

Heโ€™s a fantastic example of how getting involved with your local football club can provide opportunities to develop your skills, gain experience and be part of something special.

๐Ÿ‘€ COMING SOONโ€ฆ

Keep an eye on our socials for a brand new series, Getting to Know the Nelson FC Squad, created by the Burnley College students!
