Sussex Ladies League Division Three
Lewes 3 3
Middleton & Bognor 1 1

Lewes started off this game showing a few nerves with the league title hanging in the balance; these were soon quashed as Becca Delaney (Lewes' top goal scorer) put Lewes 1-0 up in the first ten minutes. Lewes then took control of the game, dominating the midfield with some fast attacks down both the wings. A second, fantastic goal from an acute angle came from Milli Fawsett ten minutes later. Lewes ended the first half 2-0 up. Bognor came back with their one and only goal from a break early in the second half, which Lewes immediately counteracted with a simple straight strike from Becca Delaney. The score at full time was 3-1 to Lewes, a win consistent with their unbeaten track record, and one which ensures their place as winners of the league with two games in hand.
