In a one-sided game, Kewstoke applied pressure on the Winscombe goal from the kick-off and had built a 5-0 lead by half-time, following a hat-trick by Eardley and a brace for Fondu.

The pick of the bunch being Fondu’s second where he controlled a cross field ball from Haskayne, turned and beat the keeper with a looping shot from outside the area.

After the break, Harding was unlucky not to get on the score sheet with an effort from outside the area, but the Winscombe keeper did well to parry onto the bar. Flynn also had several attempts following some confident runs into the opposition area.

Further goals followed for Haskayne and Hunt, before Eardley rounded off a great display with a headed goal in the final stages.

Athletic Under-11s took on top of the table Nailsea United and the first half was evenly matched, with both teams playing some quality football in midfield.

Jake Dunn made life difficult for Nailsea, with an excellent performance in the middle. The first half finished 0-0, yet it was Nailsea who dominated the opening stages of the second half.

With Nailsea camped in the Kewstoke half, it took some good performances from Jack Howard and Joe Morrish to stop Nailsea taking the lead.

The few chances Nailsea had were collected well by goalkeeper and Weston Building Contractors Ltd man of the match Daniel Layden, who also made a fantastic save to keep the scores level.

Nailsea were eventually rewarded for all their pressure with a late goal, and the game was settled shortly afterwards with a second.

IN a game dominated by the strong wind, Weston Town Under-14s secured another three points with a 2-0 away win at Cheddar.

The first half saw Weston kicking into the wind and it was one to forget with some scrappy play. The only highlight was a great run from Dan Berry who, after beating four players, saw his effort come back off the post.

With the wind behind them in the second half, Weston dominated the play and after a long range effort from Jack Hockey came back of the bar, Sam Fletcher pounced to head the ball past the keeper.

It was not long before the game was made safe when a good run from Rico Canella ended with him firing an unstoppable shot into the net.

The Mercedes Benz man of the match award went to Killian Vick.

WESTON Crusaders Under-12s booked their place in the final of the Knockout Cup after beating Portishead Town 3-2.

The midfield of Thomas-Barker, Cox, Santoro and Shipway worked hard with Havard and Thomas up front a constant threat. The back five of Bonner, Rac, Buxton, Denyer and Filby dealt with what little Portishead offered.

Crusaders made the breakthrough when Thomas was upended in the box and Havard tucked away the spot kick. Crusaders doubled their lead five minutes later after some excellent passing, Cox rounded off a great move by scoring to make it 2-0 at the break.

Changes made at half-time saw Williams, Morteo, Ellis-Barker, Burgess and Redding come into the affray. Against the run of play, Portishead were awarded a penalty which Burgess saved, but soon after Portishead scored two quick goals to equalise.

Crusaders made further changes and took control for the last 10 minutes. After some excellent passing, Thomas smashed the ball past the Portishead keeper for the winner.

BANWELL stretched their unbeaten run to seven matches with a 4-3 away win at Long Ashton.

Banwell took the lead when good work from Aron Staples and Ross Buller led to Harry Walsh scoring. Long Ashton equalised, but with the midfield of Lewis Cahill, Joe Brett, Ben Clatworthy and Mike Reames beginning to dominate, Banwell went 2-1 up when Dan Fowler crossed for Matt Saunders to score. Long Ashton drew level again right on half-time.

In the second half, Banwell went in front again when captain Brett fired home. Midway through the half, Fowler hit the bar and soon after scored Banwells fourth.

As Banwell looked for their fifth, Long Ashton were awarded a soft penalty.

Nomads dominated the opening 10 minutes, with Matthew Ogborne and Jack Rickwood in attack, well supported by the midfield of Dean Chrisostomou, Lewis Milkins, Olly Cunningham and Cai Williams.

However, a long ball over the Nomads defence allowed Clevedon to take the lead against the run of play. Nomads upped their game and following continued pressure saw a corner from Ogborne turned into their own goal by the Clevedon defence.

Further pressure saw Williams score from another corner and then a third was added when Cunningham forced the ball in from a goalmouth scramble. Just before half-time, a cross was superbly headed in by a Clevedon striker, giving Charlie Woodards in goal no chance.

The second half continued end to end and Nomads looked good for a win when Ogborne scored following a shot parried by the keeper.

The Nomads defence of Lewis Barber, Tyler Pooley, Harry Little, George Fulcher, Hannah Capes and Charles Constable were subjected to immense pressure and with five minutes to go conceded two late goals with the game finishing 4-4.
