West Kent Sunday League News Report – Sunday 29th May 2022

The final day of the season  completed the Division Three programme. Royal Oak pipped Brenchley to claim the runner-up spot.

The league now bids farewell to Charcott FC, Riverside Colts and Westerham, while Goudhurst United are moving over to play in the Maidstone League. And, sadly, we lost Green Lane, St John's Yard and TW Ridgewaye 1st XI during the season for various reasons. Good news is that four new clubs have applied to join and are being interviewed prior to the 2022 Annual General Meeting on 23rd June.

Division Three

Royal Oak claimed the runners-up spot in style with a 13-3 win over AFC Tonbridge. The Oak had faltered a little towards the latter part of the season, but so did their rivals. It all came good with thirteen goals, including a hat-trick by Ben Webber. Those were his first goals since the end of November. The other goals came from a long list of of players - Liam Keeble, two each by Joe Rutland, Josh Harris  and Jack Williams, Ryan Williams, Ryan Moran, Dan Lazell and an own goal. They didn't have it all their own way, with Ben Ward, Reece Porter and Sam Coster replying.

Sedlescombe Rangers were already guaranteed the title trophy and also finished in style with a double header win at Westerham.  The first game was a 1-0 win, Zak Boultwood scoring. The second was a more emphatic 4-0 victory, two of the goals coming from Bradley Pritchard, Boultwood scored again with the fourth from Archie Irving.

AFC Borough Reserves and Ticehurst Village Club have both had up and down seasons. On Sunday it finished all square between the two at Goldsmith's, a 3-3 draw. Scorers for Borough were Ed Handford, Matt Pickett and Connor Edmunds. The Club's leading scorer Leon Fisher scored twice in reply, the third came from Jason Marsh.
