Dunnington 0,
Evesham Utd Robins U-9 4
ROBINS reached the final of the Ambassador Cup after a hard-fought and deserved semi-final victory.
United stuck first when Josh Downey cut in from the touchline before firing home.
Elliott Grady increased the lead, following up to score after the Dunnington keeper had parried Downey's shot.
The hosts tried hard to get back into the game but Mark Washington sealed victory with two well-taken goals.
Evesham Utd Robins U-10s 6,
Severn City 1
LAST season's undefeated Ambas-sador League champions turned to the Mercian League this season and, despite some tough games, has repeated the feat.
The final game produced a tight and tense start until Karl Myers superbly set up Jake Hall for a calm finish.
Olly Scarrott's persistence then paid off with two further goals before the interval.
The visitors pulled one back but the second half saw United continue to battle well and, courtesy of two further goals from Hall, including a cheeky side flick, and a typically clinical run and low drive from Michael Savidge, the season drew to a comfortable close.
Inkberrow Eagles U-12 4,
Drakes Broughton 1
EAGLES reached the final of the Ambassador Evesham League Cup with a fine win.
Drakes started well and pressurised the Inkberrow goal without success. Lewis Murton featured strongly defensively.
Inkberrow gradually got more into the game and all looked evenly balanced until an attempted clearance flew 20 yards for a fluke own goal.
Inkberrow reacted well to this setback and levelled when Ashley Wright netted just before half-time.
They started the second half stronger and were rewarded when Wright capped a good individual display with a second.
More pressure then resulted in a penalty that Sam Wright converted for a 3-1 lead. Jamie Lee added a fourth to seal victory.
Bredon U-12 0, Littleton Jnrs 2
SATURDAY'S cup semi-final produced a feast of attacking from both teams.
Bredon had the best of the early exchanges but were thwarted by goalkeeper Sam Bastow and a Steve Edgehill goalline clearance.
It was Littleton who finally took the lead when Phil Davies curled a lovely shot into the top corner.
A second soon followed shortly when George Barber reacted first to knock in a rebound.
Tom Cuthbert ghosted past five defenders before laying the ball off to Ben Johns who hammered in a third.
A fourth goal came after the break when Johns hit a rocket shot from fully 40 yards that left the goalkeeper helpless.
Smith's through ball was then latched on to by Barber who ended the scoring with ease.
Severn City Jnrs 0,
Evesham Utd U-10 10
UNBEATEN Evesham ended their league season and warmed up for the cup final with a fine performance.
The Robins were on top from the start as a Sam Ford cross was turned in by Henry Woods, who then converted crosses from Andrew Powell and Louis Brown to secure a first-half hat trick.
The second half was a master class. First Brown scored an individual goal, then a Ford shot from halfway deceived the keeper.
Woods scored after the keeper saved from James Schembri, then added his fifth before Powell converted a Brown pass.
With Bryn Tomes moved into midfield, Brown pushed forward and headed home a Ford cross before the final goal came courtesy of Schembri who fired home from outside the box.
Norton Rgrs U-15 1, Burlish 4
LEAGUE leaders Burlish made Norton pay for a series of missed clearances.
Trailing 1-0 at half-time, Rangers had matched their lofty rivals but a second goal, again following a goalmouth scramble, left Norton two goals adrift.
They thought player of the match Dale Attwood had halved the deficit but the officials disallowed the effort and two more Burlish goals ended home resistance.
Ashley Knight's late strike from distance proved mere consolation for the defeated home side.
Cheltenham YMCA A 1,
Badsey Rgrs 7
RANGERS completed another successful season with an emphatic win.
Owen Powell opened the floodgates after two minutes and he then doubled the advantage with another clinical finish.
Joe Smith's powerful header from Ben Holland's pinpoint corner made it 3-0 after 29 minutes and, when the scorer was upended in the box, Dane Aldington calmly converted for 4-0 at the break.
Smith added to the score within three minutes of the restart following Christian Cloke's overlap and a well-taken Jamie Clarke strike after 49 minutes made it six.
Holland completed the Badsey total 12 minutes from time with a superb individual effort.
The scorer also bagged his side's first goal of a season that has seen 120 find the opposition's net and he was named player of the match ahead of Powell.
YMCA's late goal was pure consolation as Rangers ended runners-up for the second successive year having lost just one league game all winter.
Peopleton U-14 1, Mostyn Rgrs 1
DEPUTY goalkeeper Sam Oakey was kept busy early on as he produced a series if fine saves to prevent the hosts from going behind.
It took a fine 20-yard effort to finally beat him but the scores were level when Matt Murphy scored from the penalty spot after a foul on Harry Coughlin.
There were no more goals but it was end to end excitement with both keepers pulling off fine stops with Oakey again excelling to prevent Rangers snatching a late winner.
