The first team had the toughest possible test on their return to league action visiting Welwyn Garden City. In a hard fought and physical encounter there were few early chances, the closest either side came to a goal coming from a near post header from Fay Howell which narrowly flew over the bar. Town took the lead midway through the half when Nicki Livingstone lifted the ball into the path of Rebecca Kane and she let the ball bounce before striking a powerful volley high into top corner.

City were fortunate to draw level just before half-time when a speculative shot was misjudged by the Luton keeper and skipped just inside the post for an equaliser.

The second half was an open affair with the play flowing from end-to-end but it was Luton who regained their lead as once again Kane turned her marker to smash a shot inside the near post to make it 2-1.

Town goalkeeper Nikki Duncan atoned for her earlier error by making two fine saves to keep Luton in front and Kane was unlucky to not complete her hat- trick forcing a fine diving save from the City keeper. An excellent rearguard action in the last 15 minutes ensured a narrow but deserved win for the Town who remain in contention for promotion.

The previous week brought County Cup success in a more comfortable manner as Luton totally overran Offley Women in the Semi-Final tie, running in 13 goals without reply. Rebecca Kane scored five, there was a hat-trick for Laura Day, Micky Taylor and Michelle Byrne both scored twice and Nicky Livingstone added the final goal. Town now meet Arlesey Town in the final after they pulled off a shock beating the now defunct Bedford Town Bells by 3-2 in the other Semi-Final.

The Reserve squad fielded perhaps their youngest squad ever with nine of the squad under 17 but the inexperience proved no barrier as they overcame London side Manford Way 2-1 after initially trailing. Clare Howe equalised with a superbly struck free kick and Kirsty McIntosh fired the winner.

There was a treble success for the youth teams in the County Cup with the Under 14, 15 and 16 squads all progressing to the Semi-Final stage. The Under 16's defeated Crawley Green 8-0 with Candice Davies scoring a hat-trick, Stephanie Anes notching twice and further strikes from Jasmine Hall, Leyah Maddix and Clare Howe. They now face AFC Kempston.

Home Counties League rivals St Martins stood in the way of the Under 15's but not for long as their high tempo football gained the Town a 4-1 interval lead. A further four strikes in the second half gave Luton an 8-1 victory and they must now face the older Under 16 St Martins squad in the Semi-Final. Goalscorers were Katie Davis (4), Mirella Tambini (2), Jessica McKay and Holly Sheridan.

Woburn Lions were the Under 14's opponents in their first ever meeting with the Town running out 4-0 winners. Teighlor Pearson scored an excellent individual goal, Rachel Kosky struck her own spectacular effort and Lauren Porter and Georgia Hardy completed the scoring. They also reached the Quarter-Finals of their League Cup by completing an excellent 2-0 away win to higher placed Enfield Town.
