AFC Telford United Ladies football team has moved into second place in the West Midlands Regional Women’s Football League Division One North table as of February 11, 2026, in Telford, Shropshire.

According to the FA Full-Time league standings, the team has earned 16 points from their first seven matches of the season. This ranking puts the club in a strong position to challenge for promotion in the division.

Head coach Chris Brown has been leading the squad since 2021 and has emphasised integrating youth players into the first team. The club’s recent season recap highlighted that five players from the under-18 group made the step up to the senior side during the season.

The team plays its home matches at the SEAH Stadium (the New Bucks Head) in Wellington. The club is leveraging key home fixtures to drive higher matchday attendances as it attempts to secure promotion in the final months of the season.
