Congratulations to Griffin FC who took the Division Two title as well as their PJL Memorial Cup win to round off a successful season.

THURSDAY NIGHT JOY FOR CORSHAM
Corsham Rovers continued to press hard for the Division Two title as they visited Westbury Rovers who had obtained the Beeches at Shaw for the game.
Goals from Jake Dodge and Callum Howard gave the visitors a 2-0 half time lead.
Aron Byfield added a third before Jake Dodge got his second of the evening and Olly Clarke scored a fifth to give Corsham the victory, that although on the night kept them in with a chance of winning the title, but after Sunday’s round of results meant they had to settle for the runners up spot to Griffin FC.
