DYLAN Barnes’ double guided Warndon Villages Scorpions Under 10s to a 2-0 win over Kempsey Colts.

In a clash of the Mercian Festival Junior League Division One high-fliers, Scorpions exerted immediate pressure in blustery conditions.

Ben Ward hit the bar from distance before Barnes was rewarded for a shot from outside the box which slipped through the keeper’s legs.

There was nothing fortunate about the second though when a long range shot from Barnes curled into the top left-hand corner.

Scorpions ensured a climb up the table with George Mann and Ollie Trobe defending well in front of league debutant Ben Hughes in goal who handled superbly.

UNDER 15s: Welland Juniors recorded a fine 2-1 win at Alcester Town with a composed display to make the cup quarter-finals.

Alcester matched Welland and were 1-0 up at half-time through a penalty.

Juniors took the game to Town and equalised after persistent play from player-of-the-match Chris Shuard.

The visitors’ fitness paid off in extra-time when Shuard bagged the winner from 30 yards.

UNDER NINES: Newtown Sports Colts beat Worcester Lions Community 3-0 in Division Two, thanks to Dan Sadler’s first hat-trick.

Colts have gone four games unbeaten with keeper Ben Walker securing their third clean sheet in a row.

Joe Lancett and Lucas Ward turned providers, while defender Harry Walker was player-of-the-match.
