The 4s and 6s progressed in the cups, but the 5s narrowly lost another REMPF derby to Wandsworth 5s and the 1s also lost narrowly to Woking. In the league there was a draw for the 2s and a late defeat for the 3s down in Dorking.

Absolute monster week next with all seven sides in action (including the legends that are our Vets), so get signed up to play!

Good weekend of results with a few teams getting their first ‘dubyas’ on the board. The 1s got a solid 2-0 win at home to Bealonians in the Prem, including a debut goal for Matthew Thomas – Luke Dyges bagging the other. The 3s and 4s both drew, and the 6s got their first win at home to Dorking with 5s manager Alex Scott-Ruddock helping out and continuing to be an assist machine with now back to back assist hat tricks (if thats a thing?). The Vets also won their first competitive game of the season, 6-1 against Tooting Bec Legends, with a few of our own Hall of Fame Legends rolling back the years to put on a masterful performance.
