Under 13 Yellows close in on title

Sunday 19th February 2017

Royal Wootton Bassett Town Under 13 Yellows moved a step closer to wrapping up the North Wilts League Division Four title with a 4-2 victory against Wroughton Youth.

With three games left to play, they are eight points clear of second place Lydiard Millicent Juniors Green, meaning a point is all they require to claim the crown.

And given they have lost just once all season, that should be a formality.

Samuel Osei Bonsu scored twice against Wroughton, with Samuel Case and Sebastian Turner chipping in with a goal each.

The Under 16 Yellows also recorded an important victory to keep their hopes of a top two finish in Division Three alive.

A Ryan Battershell brace earned them a win by the odd goal in three against Marlborough Youth to lift them into fourth.

Bassett are now three points behind second place Ramsbury Juniors with a game in hand.

Elsewhere, the Under 12 Yellows defeated FC Abbey Meads 3-1. Alex Roberts gave Bassett the lead, before Ellie Gulliver and Ellie O'Nions struck.
