Awards night caps a successful season for United Women's Academy

The two sides have lifted three pieces of silverware between them in the last 10 days. Firstly, our Under-21s were crowned champions of the Academy Northern Division on 25 April, after defeating Leicester City on penalties at the end of a dramatic 3-3 draw.

Two days later, our Under-16s won the Women's Professional Game Academy (WPGA) Cup, by beating the holders Arsenal 3-1 in the final at Northampton Town's Sixfields Stadium.

Arsenal were also the opponents when our Under-21s rounded off a superb season of player development with victory in the Northern v Southern play-off final at Hemel Hempstead Town FC on Wednesday, 2 May.
