East League Division 1NW

St Ives 3, Watton 1

St Ives climbed to third after labouring to a win over Watton. Mel Wood put them ahead with a converted penalty stroke in a first half that they struggled to control. The Ives continued to struggle in the second half, as Watton turned up the pressure with an early equalising goal. St Ives gathered momentum and pushed forward, and Lou Smith scored after a solo run. Helen Clarke rounded off the scoring with minutes left, resulting in a comfortable St Ives victory. Player of the match was awarded to Vicky Leighton.

St Neots 3rds 4, Cheshnut 2nds 1

St Neots did enough to take the points from Cheshnut, despite a rather lacklustre performance. Juliana Dickinson opened the scoring when she followed up her own short corner strike to score the second time. Charlie Gillam made it two with a

solo effort, winning the ball on the halfway line and hitting her shot past the keeper. St Neots failed to kill off the game in the first half, and a Cheshnut scored just before the interval to make the game open again. Gillam tucked away a free hit just inside the post shortly after the restart, and Ali McMurray completed the scoring when she slipped a free hit just inside the far post.
