Bridgwater Mens 3rd 4, Chard 2nds 5

STEVE Turvey opened the scoring for Bridgwater following good work from Lee Chorley.

Cameron Birch doubled the lead after Jordan Rawles weaved his way through the defence to set up the goal to make it 2-0 at half-time.

But an inspired Chard side came out of the blocks in the second half to make it 4-2 before Ben Sims closed the gap.

A counter attack from Chard made it 5-3 and despite Dan Buller dispatching a penalty stroke, Bridgwater were unable to snatch a share of the points.

South East 3

Yeovil and Somerset 1, Bridgwater Mens 4ths 6

BRIDGWATER started brightly and took the lead when Dan Pigden's long range effort found its way into the goal.

Dave Dosson got on the score sheet twice before half-time to give Bridgwater a comfortable lead at half-time.

Kev Hicks played in Dan Batten for Bridgwater's fourth goal, before Dosson completed his hat-trick with a cool finish from Mike Davidge's cross.

Billy Vickery’s first senior goal came from a Pigden cross to complete the scoring for Bridgwater. Man of the Match was Dan Batten.

South East 3

Bridgwater Mens 5th 0, Minehead 3rds 7

THE game started as it was destined to go on as Minehead pushed to score an early goal.

But some poor finishing coupled with a solid defence of John Schweiso, Steve Peters, Jack Syvret and James Kettlewell somehow held out for ten minutes as Bridgwater couldn’t get the ball out of their half.

When they did press forward George Pupplett, Joe Syvret, Sam Beasley, Will Baldwin and Liam Durkin looked like they could cause some damage, but a lack of composure cost them.

Man of the match was Will Baldwin with Joe Syvret in a close second.
