Top Two Keep Winning
Saturday's fixtures were adversely affected by the wet weather this week. Only 9 matches involving BASLFL teams survived the rain.
In the Premier Division the top two both won, but in contrasting manners. Whilst Tudor Sports swept aside Eden Park Rangers 10-1 (Danny Roots with a hat-trick, two apiece for Jason & Billy Dolby and George Stuart and one for Daniel Westerman), EFC dug in for tough 2-1 away win against one-from-bottom West Bromley Albion. They remain a point apart, but Tudor have games in hand. The other Premier Division game saw Centresports continue their good run in 2018, with a 3-0 win over Croydon BR, Tom Cowell scoring twice.
In Division One there was a surprise result, as top-of-the-table Danson Sports were beaten 3-2 at home by Kingsdale, a result which sees them rise to 4th. The only other game in the division saw the bottom two do battle, with Crofton Albion recording a 5-2 win against River Plate.
Division Two saw a cracker, with Groundhoppers and Frazier playing out a 6-6 draw, with Groundhoppers recovering from 4-2 down at half-time. A whopping 10 players got themselves on the score-sheet.
In the President's Cup, South Dulwich thumped Seven Acre Sports 8-1, Sven Sabas grabbing a hat-trick. Old Roan Reserves beat Highfield and Welling 4-1 to maintain their unbeaten run, that stretches back to 11th November.
In the Kent Junior Cup Old Colfes Blue had to abandon their game at half-time, with Farnborough also rained off. The only game that survived the weather saw Red Velvet Reserves lose an exciting game 5-4 to Borden Village Reserves of the Rochester and District League.
