Academy Round-up | Swansea City Women and Girls
Two of Swansea City Women's academy sides were in action over the weekend. Here's how they got on in our latest academy round-up.
Under-17s
Swansea City Women Under-17s extended their unbeaten run to seven matches after sharing the points in a 1-1 draw with Penybont at Landore on Sunday afternoon.
The visitors took the lead in the 73rd minute when Mia Davies converted from the penalty spot following a foul inside the area.
However, the Swans found a late equaliser following a well-worked move down the right. Molly Silcox drove forward before picking out Seren Rose, who struck first time, with her effort finding its way through the legs of Penybont goalkeeper Halle Vaughan to bring the hosts level.
The result saw the Swans move up to third in the league table, with their next fixture coming against Caerphilly Dragons on November 22.
Swansea City Women Under-17s: Madison Payne, Carys Reason, Iola Parton, Macie-Leigh Henricksen, Ruby Burgin, Elin Edwards (C), Milli Jenkins, Ruby Dwan, Seren Kirk, Halle Morgan, Katie Walters.
Substitutes: Seren Rose, Molly Silcox, Seren Lewis.
Under-19s
Swansea City Women Under-19s extended their unbeaten run to four matches with a 24-0 victory over Cwmbran Celtic at Llandarcy Academy of Sport.
Caitlin Sweeney scored six times for the Swans, while Ellie Gibbins and Kelsea Verallo-Nicholas netted four goals apiece. Ada Woodman added a hat-trick, Ffion Ferguson struck twice, and Susanna Cunningham, Megan Williams, Sofia Gimblett, Seren Tidy and Dani Webster were also on the scoresheet for Richard Harris' side.
The visitors began the contest with nine players but continued to show determination throughout, with goalkeeper Jessica-Rose Morgan producing a number of impressive saves despite the difficult circumstances.
The result moves the Swans up to fourth in the Under-19s league table, ahead of Friday night's trip to Carmarthen Town Women for their penultimate fixture of the phase one campaign.
