Five-star Wealdstone take advantage of Moors’ poor form The home side started quickly and took the lead in the 12th minute. A well-delivered free-kick was met by McAvoy, whose header flew into the top-left corner and left Laurie Walker with no chance. Wealdstone continued to dominate throughout the first half, but went into the break with only a one-goal advantage, leaving the Moors with hope heading into the second period. That hope was dented in the 56th minute when Adarkwa found space on the right wing, drove forward, cut inside onto his right foot and fired an uncontested effort into the bottom-right corner. The Stones struck again just three minutes later as Tshikuna made it three, lashing a powerful shot into the left side of the net from outside the box. Conor Wilkinson pulled one back for the Moors on 64 minutes, but Wealdstone responded immediately from the restart. Substitute Agyemang played Obiero through, and he made no mistake in front of goal. Tiensia then added a fifth for the hosts from close range six minutes later to round off a difficult afternoon for the Moors.

Solihull visit Wealdstone, looking to bounce back after a defeat to Gateshead in their last outing.

Solihull Moors can confirm that James Clarke has departed the Club to join Boreham Wood, bringing an end to a hugely memorable spell at Damson Park.

Solihull Moors FC and Solihull Moors Foundation came together to show their support for inclusion and accessibility in football, through the Unite for Access Campaign. The recent fixture at Damson Park served as a dedicated matchday in support of the campaign, a national initiative led by Level Playing Field that promotes accessibility and inclusion for disabled sports fans. Delivered by Solihull Moors Foundation, the day created an opportunity for children, young people and adults to enjoy and experience a welcoming and inclusive matchday environment. Throughout the day, more than 200 children, young people and adults joined us altogether at Damson Park to celebrate the Unite For Access campaign. Participants took part in a range of activities and activations on the astro. The energy and enthusiasm from everyone involved created a fantastic atmosphere, highlighting the importance of providing inclusive and accessible opportunities within sport.

The Foundation was also delighted to welcome Madam Mayor and Councillor Karen Grinsell as special guests on the day. We appreciate their continued support and the work they have done alongside the Foundation to help strengthen opportunities within the community. The day also reflected the shared commitment of Solihull Moors Foundation and Solihull Moors to break down barriers and ensure that football remains inclusive and accessible for everyone. Creating opportunities where everyone feels welcome, valued and able to take part is central to the Foundation’s work within the community. Scott Langford, Learning & Accessibility Manager at Solihull Moors Foundation, said: "Inclusion sits at the heart of everything we do at Solihull Moors Foundation. Supporting the Unite For Access campaign is about more than a matchday, it’s about continuing to break down barriers and making sure everyone, regardless of their needs or abilities, feels that football is a place where they belong. We are proud to work with partners, supporters and the wider community to ensure the game remains accessible for all." Both the Solihull Moors F.C. Men’s First Team and the Solihull Moors Women's First Team proudly showed their support for the Unite For Access campaign across the weekend, demonstrating a shared commitment across the club to champion accessibility and inclusion in football. By collectively backing the campaign, the teams helped highlight the importance of ensuring the game remains welcoming and accessible for everyone. Their support reinforced the club-wide values of inclusion, unity and opportunity, while helping raise awareness of the need to continue breaking down barriers so that disabled supporters and participants can fully engage with football and the matchday experience.
