Ladies in Play-Off
« on: June 04, 2015, 09:54:13 PM »

As you will probably be aware Altrincham FC Ladies achieved a very creditable second place in the Cheshire Women's and Youth League

This encouraged the Ladies to apply for promotion to the North West Regional Women's League.

With support from a number of sources including Altrincham Football Club, Mersey Valley Sports Club and the Cheshire Women's and Youth League, amongst others a point has been reached where the final promotion place is to be decided by a one-off play-off fixture between Altrincham FC Ladies and Haslingden Women and Girls who were runners up in the Lancashire County Women's League.

It is as yet undecided where and when the game will be played but the Ladies would really appreciate any support any of you might be able to offer.

More details will be posted as and when they become available

although welcome, what a bizarre state of affairs that this is all sorted out after the fact, given that the season has ended won't some of the players be on holiday / not match fit

Had a look at the league above, seems to be some household names in that division. Not to mention a Northwich side.

I assume the playoff isn't normal, as not every side would want promotion etc or usually only one does

Our first team should be renamed Altrincham Men and Boys FC.

I've now spent a day and a half trying to figure out what your post is intended to suggest.

Clearly Altrincham FC Ladies need to be referred to in those terms whereas your suggested "boys and men" seems to me entirely nugatory.

However, if you explain the rationale to me I will be much wiser - obviously

I wondered why Haslingden felt the need to call their team "women and girls".

Sorry to have wasted a day and a half of your life, especially at the weekend.

To answer your question:


The way Haslingden is set up all female football comes under one "umbrella" hence the Girls and Ladies

The way Alty is set up the "Girls" teams form part of the Juniors and are administered as such whereas the Ladies are part of the main club
