North East Wales Women’s Development League: Mynydd Isa and Cei Connah share points in eight-goal stormer!

NORTH EAST WALES WOMEN’S DEVELOPMENT LEAGUE – SUNDAY, JANUARY 11, 2026

MIFC 4 (T Roberts 2, Ratcliffe 2)
CPD Cei Connah 4 (Harrison 3, Jones)

An eight-goal thriller ended with Cei Connah dropping points for the first time this season but they still remain six clear in top spot.

On a very cold and windy Sunday afternoon at Argoed, Mynydd Isa took a seventh-minute lead with a well-taken strike from captain Tahlia Roberts.

Becca Jones soon equalised for the Dockers, before super striker Stacey Harrison stepped up and scored twice.

Caroline Ratcliffe pulled one back close to the interval to make it 3-2 to Cei Connah at the break.

Both teams battled hard in the second half, with Cei creating multiple chances to extend their lead.

However, Isa showed great resilience and managed to pull the game back to 3-3 through Ratcliffe’s second goal.

After further Cei chances went begging, Isa then took the lead through Roberts and attempted to slow the game down in search of the win.

But Cei had the final say. After a quick throw found Harrison in the dying seconds, she turned her defender, ran through on goal, and finished brilliantly to earn the visitors a well-deserved point with her 21st goal in just six matches.
