  We have two teams in the Merseyside leagues.   Southport 1 play in Div 2.  The division is very competitive and we have done well to be mid-table so far with 2 wins and 2 losses.   Southport 2 has been re-born this season in Div 4 after a couple of years without a 2nd team.  Our new members have performed really well and we are currently top of the league with 4 wins and 1 loss!   Both teams have one more league match before we reach the Xmas break, the midway point of the season. All the detailed results, fixtures and league tables can be found on the MCA website which can be accessed from the ‘Leagues’ tab.
