DROITWICH Spa Athletic U10s 0 Bewdley Colts U10s 2. Spa crashed out of the cup to a well organised Colts team. It was a close game won with two long range shots which caught out the Spa keeper.

Rubery Juniors U16s 3 Boldmere SS Falcons U16s 1. Rubery played their best football of the season to beat league leaders Boldmere. With only two recognised defenders in the team, who both received the MoM accolade, Rubery attacked from the start. David MacGillivray was rewarded before the game for his 200th game for the club in a team who have played 205 games. He has only ever missed five games.
Dolphin Reds U7s 0 Lickey End FC U7s 2. Eventually the deadlock was broken when a Dolphin's defender could only turn the ball into his own net.

Max Loveridge scored the second with a shot from the edge of the area and a shot from Jamie Lucas from a similar distance hit the post. Overall a deserved victory.
Newtown Sports Colts U10s 1 Droitwich Spa Cobras U10s 4. Another first half hat-trick by Alex Clarke and a further goal early in the second half gave Cobras a comfortable lead. A fine free-kick brought Newtown's only response. A great performance by all the Cobra players with special mention to MoM Grant Evans and George Ellson whose work rate and skills were exceptional.
Hanbury U9s 3 Hollywell Harriers U9s 0. An excellent team performance from the whole team, with goalkeeper Blane Stevenson dominating his box.

Callowbrook Swifts U8s 2 Catshill U8s 2. Stuart Green and Rory Caines scored for Swifts as Catshill equalised in the last minute.
Callowbrook Swifts U10s A 4 Alcester Athletic U10s 3. The visitors took the lead with a scrappy goal. MoM Matty Reeves tucked away Mikey Chambers cross to draw level and midfield dynamo Lee Williamson put Swifts ahead at the break. Soon after the re-start, Chambers finished a one-on-one before a miraculous goal by keeper Lewis Gwilliams evoked memories of Pat Jennings in 1967. Athletic made a late comeback but the home side hung on for a deserved win.
Bradley Rangers U10s 6 Callowbrook Swifts U10s B 1. Swifts didn't do justice to their great performance last week but Tom Savage, MoM Wayne Clarke and goal scorer Nigel McConkey put in good displays.

Ulverley Hawks U9s 3 Bromsgrove Town Boys U9s 1. The home side went ahead from a defensive mix up. It was wave after wave of attack by Bromsgrove, but they could not take their chances until James Ward blasted home from two yards when the home defence failed to clear. The second period was more open and both sides squandered opportunities, although solid defensive work by James Brighton and James Ward kept UH out. Town were undone when they were caught on the counter attack and Hawks scored two with minutes to spare.
Knowle U13s 5 Hanbury U13s 1. Hanbury surprised Premier League Knowle in this Open Cup round two clash with an early goal from Manvir Gill. They dominated for long periods, but for a disastrous ten minute spell where they conceded four goals, the outcome may have been different. MoM Gareth Padmore was pushed hard for the honours by Alex Richardson, John Hunt, Tom Stockwell, Jordan Drysdale, Karl Hughes and a fine debut from Jem Hylton.
Leamington Lions 5 Bromsgrove Town Belles 0. Belles were again hampered by a depleted side. They were two goals down after eight minutes and fell further behind to end the first half 5-0 down. Playing for pride in the second half, the girls fought magnificently to prevent Leamington adding to their first half tally. A strong penalty appeal by the Belles meant they failed to score for the first time this season.
Callowbrook Swifts U15s 5 Hanbury U15s 6. It's three wins out of three as Hanbury held on to a half time lead to maintain their 100 per cent record, despite 16 minutes of extra time being played. Goals for Dean Palmer (four), Alex Glover and a Beckham-like free kick from Keelan McNally were enough in a physical second half. The whole team were awarded MoM for an outstanding performance.
Hanbury U11s 6 Beau Terriers U11s 2. Within ten minutes Hanbury were 4-1 up with goals from MoM Josh Mitchell (two), Brad Wright and Duncan Lewis. The second half was always going to be comfortable with Hanbury well on top, increasing their lead with a second goal from Brad Wright followed by an own goal. Terriers managed a second goal but the game was already won.
Catshill U9s 1 TR2000 U9s 4. Catshill were on the end of another defeat to bottom-placed TR2000. Catshill trailed but a good goal from James Lund equalised. Catshill were nowhere near the side that finished the first half, and were punished for sloppy play as TR2000 scored three more. MoM was Craig Goldsby.
Sutton Town U12s 4 Hanbury U12s 0. Full credit to Hanbury in this cup tie. The scoreline flatters Hanbury, who battled well and never dropped their heads. Matthew Cartmel has another outstanding game in the Hanbury defence, as did Ben Broadist when he came on at half time. Matthew Hunt and Jay Dauncey both had good games in midfield for Hanbury. MoM was Michael Harris with a superb performance.
Bromsgrove Corinthians U12s 5 Catshill Juniors U12s 0. The Corries scored four first half goals provided by Andy Court.
