Dapaa double makes Swifts safe
Uttoxeter Town 0 Stourport Swifts 2 MPL 4th April 2026 Att: 46
Kwame Osei Dapaa notched a second half brace with his first goals for the club to give the Swifts the points they needed to escape the drop zone.
Stourport, still smarting from their midweek drubbing by league leaders Hanley, saw the return of keeper Charlie Mcnamara, 12 goal Kai Adams and skipper Harry Higginson to produce an accomplished performance in a match they dominated in difficult conditions.
In the first ten minutes against a strong wind, Jake Cooper saw his fierce drive blocked and Matt Harland’s low shot was saved by Town keeper Charlie Wood. Mcnamara was rarely troubled in the first half, but dealt well with a dipping effort from John McHugh when he cut inside from the right. Nathan Bowen then managed to connect with a dangerous cross from Jim Hanson but his effort fizzed wide.
After the break Adams was a constant threat down the right side, and his driven cross from the byline was met by Dapaa ten yards out but his shot was blocked by defender Tom Thorley. Adams then skipped past two defenders on 55 minutes to cross for Dapaa to take a touch and blast the Swifts in front .
In a rare Uttoxeter attack, Jack Henchcliffe fired a 25 yard free kick narrowly over the crossbar, but Adams was soon back causing havoc when he again reached the byline to cross for Matt Harland to come within inches of adding to the score, then Jim Hanson crossed for Adams to head just wide.
With 77 minutes gone, Dapaa sealed a vital win when he drove in from eight yards following a Matt Harland corner. The home side produced little to trouble a determined Swifts defence marshalled by Higginson, and Dapaa almost finished with a hat trick when he headed Jim Hanson’s cross just over the bar.

Swifts put to the sword as Hanley go top
Stourport Swifts 0 Hanley Town 7 MPL 31st March 2026 Att: 84
Rampant Hanley Town reclaimed top spot in the Premier League as they ruthlessly took apart a lack lustre Stourport Swifts last night.
Hanley lost their lead at the top on Saturday when they went down at home to Wolverhampton City, and were in no mood for a repeat at Walshes Meadow.
The visitors went in front after 14 minutes when leading scorer Lewis Porter was first to react in the Swifts box to score from close range, and his second came just 8 minutes later when he cleverly lobbed over Alex King from a tight angle. Corey Muirhead was next on the scoresheet in the 27th minute when he raced in to pick up a clever lay off from Porter to drill a shot past King from 12 yards out. Finn Pattison added a fourth in the 31st minute as the Swifts could not stem the tide, and Porter completed a quick fire hat trick from the penalty spot when he blasted home after being brought down by Jake Cooper.
Stourport managed to last 15 minutes into the second half before skipper Joel Stair thumped in a far post header after a free kick from Max Van Der Laan. Porter completed the scoring in the 64th minute with his fourth goal to complete a miserable night for the Swifts.

Swifts goalless again
Stourport Swifts 0 Whitchurch Alport 2 MPL 28th March 2026 Att:101
Two second half goals left Stourport Swifts wondering what might have been as visitors Whitchurch left with all three points.
Swifts could have been in front as early as the third minute, when Kwame Daapa sent a curling long range effort just over the bar, then Andy Cairney shot wastefully wide from 20 yards out.
Whitchurch too showed they could waste good chances, and both Adam Jasper and Marques Trowers were off target from dangerous positions. Cairney then let the Swifts best chance go begging when he lofted his shot over the bar after being sent clear with just keeper Jack Sheward to beat.
Whitchurch striker Alex Hughes could have put the visitors ahead seven minutes into the second half, but blazed his shot wide from a golden chance. Trowers though made no mistake two minutes later when he cooly slid his shot past the advancing Alex King to put his side in front. Swifts could have been level just after going behind but somehow, following Jake Cooper’s corner, the ball flashed across the Whitchurch goal line but no one was on hand to take the vital touch. Hughes could have made it two for Whitchurch two minutes later though, but his shot came back off the post after he drove through the Swifts defence.
As they pushed for a leveller, Cairney twice went close but fired wide on both occasions, and with two minutes to go, Whitchurch made sure of a win when Alex King fumbled keeper Shewards’ long clearance into the net.
SWIFTS: King, Rawlins, Joe Hanson, Higginson, Cooper, Bowen, Harland, Carter, Dapaa, Cairney. SUBS USED: Colebrooke, Grove, Titterton, Moseley.
Late goal costs Swifts
Stourport Swifts 0 Winsford United 1 MPL 25th March 2026 Att: 72
Played at Droitwich Spa.
A late goal from Winsford sub Matt Birchall condemned Stourport Swifts to another defeat at the hands of play off chasers Winsford United.
The Swifts produced a battling performance throughout, and should have taken the lead on 14 minutes when Jake Cooper’s thunderous 30 yard free kick was parried by Jacob Kirwan, Kai Adams followed up to finish, but somehow the ball finished up back in the grateful goalkeeper’s arms. Three minutes later Lewis Moseley let another golden opportunity slip away when his snap shot flashed wide after a surging run and cross down the left from Andy Cairney.
Winsford skipper Reece Davies headed over the bar following a rare first half attack from the visitors, then Max Colebrooke saw his shot well saved by Kirwan as Adams robbed the keeper in possession after he dallied on the ball. Early in the second half Kirwan kept out a fierce effort from Adams, as Winsford began to realise that only a win would keep them in the play off hunt and began to apply some pressure, but skipper Harry Higginson marshalled the Swifts defence well as United turned the screw.
Adams threatened again as he skipped past three defenders into the Winsford box to see his low shot blocked, but with ten minutes to go Birchall burst through to turn a low shot past the advancing Alex King to keep his team in the promotion hunt.
SWIFTS: King, Rawlins, Joe Hanson, Higginson, Cooper, Jim Hanson, Bowen, Moseley, Colebrooke, Cairney, Adams. SUBS USED: Dapaa, Carter, Allesbrook,
