WESTON started the game well with the midfield and defence of Kylie Sully, CJ Neate, Paul Skinner and Chris Bryant combining well and putting together some good passes.
Weston took the lead when captain Jack Pitt set up Matt Kearsey to make a fine solo run and put the ball past the keeper from a tight angle. Weston went further ahead after more good work from Kearsey, taking advantage of gaps in the Westbury defence.
