Whites 5 - 1 Oundle

Another cold day and other three point for the Whites as they look to regain second spot and put pressure on runaway league leaders, Parkside. 

Whites scored with the opeing attack of the game through Cameron and another slamming goal from Bradley before half-time gave Hampton a comfortable cushion. Second-half goals from Jamie, William and Dami will give the team confidence ahead of the trip to Parkside on Saturday where they come head-to-head with the team to beat.

Hampton 5 - 0 Sawtry Colts

A fine victory on a very chilly and blustery Saturday morning saw the Whites bag five and move into second place, pending other results. 

The wind was a disadvantage to the Whites in the first-half but they managed not to concede and Dylan opened the scoring after being set free, beyond the keeper, by Bradley. Early on, keeper Lucas was injured after displaying incredible bravery defending his goal and was replaced by Jamie and then by Alex in the second period. The defence, led by Thomas, held firm ensuring another clean sheet for the today's three goalkeepers.

Second half got off to a flying start with William taking the ball around the keeper and into the net, followed by goals from Dami, Cameron, and Jamie. Dami's especially pleasing on the eye as Thomas chased a cross down to the sidelines, arrowed it back in where Dami met it at acrobatically at the far post.
