An unusual day of fixtures today, as all four Ladies teams were away, three being at Brent Cross v West Hampstead sides, whilst the 2's had to travel to North London and only one men's home game. The Ladies 1's and 4's both played on adjacent pitches at 10.30 am and both won. The 1's are now very much in touch with the teams just above them in 7th and 8th place in the Premier Division. The 2's and 3's both lost and the 3's urgently need to secure some points to move out of the relegation zone. At one stage this week, it was doubtful that the 4's would be able to field a side, so thank you to all the Captains and players who worked so hard to get the team out, players who doubled up and helped out, to ensure that we not only fielded four teams, but that the 4's won. The full results are shown below:

1's won 2-1 v West Hampstead 2's (A)
2's lost 0-5 v Winchmore Hill & Enfield 1's (A)
3's lost 1-3 v West Hampstead 4's (A)
4's won 1-0 v West Hampstead 5's (A)

Although the men only secured 1 win, what a great one it was as the 2's secured their first victory of the season. They were the only game at home and they took centre stage and played well and could have won by a bigger margin. Photos from the game are now on Steve McCarthy's page https://www.flickr.com/people/ahcpics/. I enclose a mobile phone picture from the game. Unfortunately two defeats and a draw were the other results:

1's drew 1-1 v Reading 3's (A)
2's won 4-2 v Wycombe 3's (H)
3's lost 2-4 v Wycombe 4's (A)
4's lost 1-6 v BA (A)
