League Position
• Doncaster: Top of the table, looking to stay there heading into the Christmas break
• Newcastle 1s: Lower down the table, aiming to disrupt Doncaster’s momentum

Doncaster head into their final match before the Christmas break with a massive opportunity: win, and they go into the holiday period top of the league. With several key fixtures happening elsewhere this weekend, results could also open the door to giving Doncaster a little more breathing room at the summit.
This will be the second meeting between the sides this season, having already faced Newcastle on the opening day — a game Doncaster won convincingly away from home. They’ll be looking to replicate that performance and finish 2024 on a high.
The squad is bolstered by a full 16-player line-up, providing strength, depth, and plenty of options across the pitch. Training this week has been sharp, and several players have stood out.
Players to Watch
• Annabelle — strong in training this week, growing in confidence and influence on the pitch.
• Beth — outstanding in goal all season, playing a huge part in Doncaster’s rise to the top; her reliability will be crucial again.
• Ellie — playing her final game before heading off travelling, and the team will be looking for one last big performance to see her off in style.
