Darwen receive First Division North Club of the Month Award
Thu 6th February 2025 | League Awards | By Martin Fallon
We were delighted to catch up recently with Darwen, winners of the First Division North Club of the Month award for December 2024.
The Management Team at Darwen are pictured receiving the award from League Vice-Chairman Geoff Wilkinson who carried out the presentation on behalf of the League Committee.
Darwen lift this won this award for the first time since November 2014! They were the only team in the division to win all of the games that they played, picking up two home and one away wins, scoring seven goals and conceding just one.
They started December with a 2-0 away win at Garstang. Jayden Major put them ahead just after half time with Connor Hughes securing the win with the second goal of the game in stoppage time.
Next up was a superb 4-1 home win against Euxton Villa on Boxing Day, with Connor Hughes scoring a hat-trick in that game. He scored midway through each half before adding a third just before the full time whistle. Charlie Lloyd got the other goal just after the half hour mark.
The final game of the month came two days later when they beat Bacup Borough 1-0, Jayden Major scoring the only goal of the game with 20 minutes to go.
That gave them 10 points from their 3 games for a 3.33 average.
Atherton LR and Daisy Hill ran Darwen close, but were let down by dropped points in an otherwise unbeaten month. Three teams did not play the required three games to be considered.
Total Games played in the Month: 3
Total Points won in the Month: 10
Average: 3.33
