Stockton Town U 12s 3 Yarm Town Under 12s 0
A fantastic match was going to be played but a goal less first half with a lot of neaves, especially from the Stockton team resulted in no action in either teams box.
The second half was a different story as Stockton gained in conferdence and got the ball down and played one touch football. After ten minutes the ball came down the left and was crossed in where J J Tucker over head kick, lopped into Yarms goal. Then Man of the match Hal White dribbed his away into Yarms box but was forced out wide where he turned and scored a replica goal like Massimo Maccarone did last Saturday. After that it was left to J J Tucker to finish of Yarm by blasting a goal from 18 yrds out and win the game.

Billingham 0, Marton FC 7
Marton clinched their third league title in four seasons with an emphatic away win against Billingham. Marton went ahead mid way through the first half when Worton, Walker and Colligan combined well to find Johnston who drilled the ball past Cooper. The goal settled Marton and they began to get the ball down keep possession and play some terrific football, Cooper in the Billingham goal was in outstanding form making great saves to deny Johnston, Carroll, Hill and Rowney as Marton piled on the pressure.
The visitors finally added to their score when the impressive Spence smashed the ball into the top corner of the net from the edge of the box and just before the break Kell's cross shot took a deflection to deceive the keeper and end up in the net. The second half got under way with Marton well on top and further goals from Johnston, Rowney and the hard working Henderson put the visitors firmly in control.
Billingham to their credit never gave up and nearly pulled a goal back, a bullet header was some how tipped over the bar by Matty Tymon the stand in keeper. Marton went back on the attack and Jack Widdowson was unlucky not to score hitting the cross bar from a tight angle. Marton wrapped things up in the final minute as Johnston scored again to complete his hat trick.

Teesside Junior Alliance Under 10
Stockton Town Juniors overcame Cumby Rovers 1-0 with a very gritty and determined performance by Stockton Town Juniors against an older and more experienced Cumby Rovers. In the first half Stockton were kicking into a very strong wind and still managed to dominate the early passages of play with some neat one touch football between Hough, Duck and Waddup. The defensive trio of Woollaston, Moody and Everson always looked assured with Moody worthy of praise due to some exceptional tackling and never-say-die determination. A period of end to end football culminated with a blistering run from Hough who somehow managed to hit the ball into the roof of the net from an almost impossible angle.
In the second half Cumby came more and more into the game and were only denied by some great saves from goalkeeper Martin Craven who was also stand in Captain for the day. Craven was beaten only once however the woodwork saved the day for Stockton. The introduction of Dowson and Higgins provided further stability for Stockton and had further chances to increase their lead. Stockton were thouroughly deserving of the three points - Man of the Match for Stockton was shared between Hough and Craven.
