Sandbach United receive January Club of the Month Award
Sun 23rd February 2025 | League Awards | By Martin Fallon
We were delighted to catch up recently with Sandbach United, winners of the First Division South Club of the Month award for January 2025.
The entire playing and management staff at Sandbach are pictured receiving the award from League Chairman Paul Lawler and League Ambassador Andrew Reid who carried out the presentation on behalf of the League Committee.
Sandbach - who won this award for the first time since November 2023 - had an great month, winning three of their four games without conceding a goal, and their only defeat being to Northern Premier League Premier Division side Hyde United.
They started the month with an emphatic 4-0 home win against Barnton, with Ben Greenop scoring a hat-trick in this game to put his side 3-0 up. He scored twice in three minutes towards the end of the first half before completing his treble in the 64th minute. Joseph Bevan then put the icing on the cake with a fourth goal for Sandbach in stoppage time.
Next came a much tighter game as Sandbach travelled to Eccleshall. Ryan Goodwin scored the only goal of the game after just seven minutes, with Sandbach seeing playing out the rest of the game without conceding to record a 1-0 win.
The third game came in the Quarter Final of the Cheshire Senior Cup with an away trip to Hyde United, three divisions higher than Sandbach. Hyde took the game serious by naming a full strength side, and as a result ran out 7-0 winners to progress to the Semi Final.
The final game for Sandbach was a return to league action as they hit the road again, this time to Alsager Town. They returned with a 2-0 win, Ryan Goodwin opening the scoring on 37 minutes before Jake Pollard added a second ten minutes into the second half.
That gave them 11 points from their 4 games for a 2.75 average.
Closest to them was Abbey Hulton United, who both league games but lost in the FA Vase, whilst ten teams did not play the required three games to be considered.
Total Games played in the Month: 4
Total Points won in the Month: 11
Average: 2.75
