James Savage and Callum Wood led the charge for HKL ONE leaders Renishaw MW on Sunday, scoring two goals apiece as their side romped to a 7-1 win over Pilsley Community to maintain their seven point lead in the Chesterfield & District League.

In a game which they dominated, they were joined on the scoresheet by Christian Savage, Karl Knowles and Jamie Danns and have now won seven and drawn one of their eight games to date.

New Whittington Newbold’s three game winning run came to an abrupt halt as they were beaten 6-3 at Britannia who are second behind Renishaw. Charlie Dawes proved to be Britannia’s main threat, hitting a fine hat-trick. Louis Siddall, Isaac Godinho and Curtis Birchall did find the net NWN but further goals from Nico DeGirolamo, Kurtis Morley and Nathan Thomas secured victory for Britannia.
