Alex Hughes was recently presented with his First Division South Player of the Month award for September 2025. League Director Martin Fallon recently took a trip to Telford Town, and he is pictured presenting Alex with his award after the game.

He is the first Telford player to win one of the monthly awards since they joined the league in the summer.

Alex is no stranger to the NWCFL, making over 100 appearances for Whitchurch Alport when they were a member club before their lateral movement to the Midland League. He also played for Alsager Town last season before moving to Shrewsbury Up & Comers where he fired in 67 goals in just 44 games. He moved to Telford at the start of this season.

His first game in September for Telford saw him fire his side ahead in the third minute at Cammell Laird 1907. The home side hit back though to secure a 1-1 draw. Next up was a home tie with Shawbury United, Alex scoring their goal in a 2-1 defeat.

His contributions have been pivotal in driving the team’s momentum, and his work rate off the ball has set the tone for others to follow. The third game showed this where despite him not finding the net, he was crucial for his side in securing a 3-1 win at Stafford Town.

The fourth game saw Alex back on the scoresheet in a 5-0 win at Wolverhampton Casuals, with Alex scoring the second goal of the game from the penalty spot. His contributions saw him set up several other goals in this game with Alex winning Man of the Match.

The final game was a 7-1 home win against Wolverhampton Sporting Community in the Macron Cup. Alex scored twice in this game, scoring the third and fifth goals in the game.

Congratulations Alex!
