BRACKLEY Athletic under-7s finished off their campaign at the weekend with a 6-1 trouncing of Willen Juniors – their largest win of the season.
Ben Purnell notched a hat-trick, Emma Marshall struck two goals and Oliver Franklin also netted, with keeper Jack Rockell awarded man of the match.
Moretonville Rangers under-11s lost a close, hard-fought game at title chasers Deanshanger Colts 5-3.
It started well for Rangers when early pressure led to a powerful, long range shot from Alfie Bolden which the keeper could not hold and Jamie O'Hara finished off.
Rangers continued to push but were caught on the counter by a ball over the top and a sharp finish for the equaliser.
Ville again took the lead when Hallam Kimpton broke free to blast past the keeper. Pressure from Deanshanger led to an equaliser when a clearance hit the Colts forward on the back deceiving keeper Will Eastwood.
The second half started with more Colts pressure and two quick goals. Rangers pulled a goal back with a tremendous finish by the lively Kimpton. Ville went seeking a late equaliser but were unlucky to conceed an own goal from a good cross.
Deanshanger Colts under-9s were 6-4 winners at Pitstone & Ivinghoe. Colts completed their league programme with a fine victory, but they had to come back from 3-2 down at half-time. Goals from Jesel Patel (2), Aidan Ennis (2), Harry Hammond and Keir Fowler secured the win.
