25 OCT - CBC PREMIER – Boynton’s 10 claim first win, the top two draw and Jubilee up to third  - Despite being reduced to ten men, Boynton Sports came from behind to claim their first points of the season with a 2-1 victory at Hackenthorpe. Hackenthorpe took the lead with a Curt Modest strike and they looked on course to win when a red card reduced Boynton to ten men before half-time.

Boynton had other ideas though and after the break won it with two goal of the season contenders from Jake Gamban. When the ball was dropping to Gamban 35 yards out there looked to be little danger, but he volleyed an unstoppable shot past the keeper to level the game. As the game was running into injury time the fall fell to Gamban on the left hand side of the box and he again produced an instantaneous volley that left the keeper with no chance to earn victory for Boynton

The top two, Wadsley Bridge Sixers and Wickersley CC shared the points by drawing 1-1 with each other. Sixers took the lead on 18 minutes when a cross was headed home by George Rudd. Ten minutes later Jacob Pearson won the ball after pressure on a defender and stroked the ball home off the bar. The second half saw both teams have chances, but neither could take them and the points were shared.

Jubilee Rangers won 3-0 at home to Mosborough Reds to move up to third. In tough conditions, after a cagey start Jubilee went ahead when new signing Ali Mofrad raced through to smash the ball past the keeper. Jubilee pressed forward after that and doubled their lead when Sam Phillips took aim from 25 yards and found the bottom corner.

The second half was a tough slog as the conditions worsened, but Jubilee eventually netted a third late in the game when some neat football ended with Adam Darton heading home from a wicked Phillips cross.

The Royal Earl v Loca and Eckington MW v Stannington Village games were postponed due to the weather.

25 OCT - DIV 1 – Chris rubs Salt in Sportsmans wounds and Wisewood topple Southey - Chris Salt (pictured left) scored 3 to make it 7 in his last two games as Woodman Cotts thrashed The Sportsman 8-1 to climb to fourth.  That scoreline looked very unlikely when The Sportsman took an early lead when the Woodman keeper dropped the ball and Dylan Williams stabbed the ball home. That seemed to galvanise Woodman though and they soon equalised when they were awarded a penalty and Sam Stacey chipped the ball into the top corner.

Salt then got in on the act to give Woodman the lead with a shot from close to the halfway line. They increased their lead just before the break when Andrew Swift found the bottom corner from just outside the box. The second half was one-way traffic with Salt netting two more to complete his hat-trick, another from Stacey and two from Yassine Teache completing the scoring

AFC Wisewood went second after coming from behind to win beat Southey Social 2-1 with two late goals and knock their visitors off the top. With both teams battling against the strong winds, chances were hard to come by, until 5 minutes before the break Louie Mattimore brought the ball down and crossed for Southey skipper Jay Slocombe to fire home from close range.

The second half was still a bottle against the conditions, but with 15 minutes left Harry Hayes grabbed a deserved equaliser for Wisewood and they then won it with a Jay Travis strike in the last few minutes.
