Sacriston Cricket Club Travelled to Coxhoe Wmc in the First Division on a rock hard pitch ,. Michael Mellor gave away a free kick on 7 minutes. From that free kick the ball was sent over to the far post where Mellor was and for the entire world the ball looked like it was going out of play but the Coxhoe number 10 got round the back and diverted the ball back across the goal and into the far corner to make it 1-0. Then on 26 minutes the Cricketers levelled the scores when Michael Frazer’s free kick was flicked on in the box by O’Brien and Yates brought the ball under control and placed a right footed shot into the bottom corner of the net to make it 1-1.The rest of the first half was even with Sacriston having lots of territory and causing problems in the Coxhoe defence with long throws from Draper and corners from James Thornton but we just couldn’t get the final touch to send the ball goal wards. Coxhoe then wasted the best chance of the game just before half time when their forward got through one on one with our keeper having been clearly yards off side and Marc Bladen did brilliantly to get back close enough to him to force him into shooting over the bar.
Half time came and went and Crickters started the 2nd half much the stronger team forcing many corners from which they had one cleared off the line and O’Brien had a great chance at the back post from Draper’s corner but put his header wide. Then on 72 minutes Coxhoe took the lead when a cross to our back post reached one of their players who was unmarked and he bundled in a finish, where a combination of Hall and Marc Bladen look to have kept the ball from crossing the line, but the referee decided from his position from 25 yards away that he could clearly give a goal .Final score 2-1 to Coxhoe. In a Typical Washington derby the Cross Keys playing the Victoria, with a nervy start but then settled down to a scrappy affair, keys tried to play football but never looked like scoring and the vic resulted in long balls which the keys never really dealt with. Two injuries to a weak turn out by the keys resulted in a game of two different styles of football which worked in the Vics favour and they came away with a hard worked 2-0 win. Burnside Wmc Travelled to Chilton Wmc, Chilton scored in the first half to lead 1 - 0. In the second half Burnside came back into the game and grabbed an equaliser, Sacriston wmc had goalkeeper problems for the home game against Gilesgate Moor Queens Head ,with the 1st choice keeper away on holiday, the 2nd choice injured in the warm up, so centre half, Michael Finch went in goal. Gilesgate took full advantage of this in the first half, scoring 3. The first was a good finish from the edge of the 18 yard box, the 2nd came when Asquith slid in and cleared the ball but was adjudged to have committed a foul resulting in a penalty, and this was converted. The 3rd was some good play resulting in a headed goal from 6 yards. Sacriston got 1 back just before half time when Wearmouth was brought down in the box and converted the penalty.
The 2nd half was totally different, Sacriston dominated for long periods, they hit the bar and post, scored another from a corner when Aaron White headed home. Sacriston's Tom Winter thought he had scored the equalizer only for the ref to blow for offside. Gilesgate were reduced to long balls over the top to try and relieve some pressure, but they defended well and the goalkeeper was their Man Of The Match.Final Score 2-3

In the Second Division Chester Plough Inn made the short trip to play Ouston. Chester Plough dominated the first half and created a number of chances but couldn’t break the deadlock. Shortly before half time and against the run of play Ouston took the lead. In the second half Ouston were a lot stronger and doubled their lead through Keith Lines. Kris Lawton added a third midway through the second half. New Durham WMC entertained East Rainton Fc in a scrappy first half all square 0-0.

Chilton hit back in the second half and goals by the McPhersons Ian and Andy put them into a 2-1 lead. More chances for Chilton followed but they were unable to add to their tally and were punished five minutes from time when they were unable to clear their lines and the ball fell to Sherburns Martin to shoot home to equalise
In division 3 an entertaining Chester le Street derby saw the Cricket Club come out on top against the Red Lion. The Red Lion edged the first half and took the lead from the penalty spot after a handball. The Cricket Club started the second half the better team but found themselves 2-0 down when a misplaced pass found the Red Lion striker who finished well. This did not deter the CC however, who soon found themselves back in the game, Andrew Willcock pulling a goal back. From this point the Cricket Club dominated the game and got an equaliser via a cool finish from Lee Cuthbertson. A deserved winner followed soon as Willcock grabbed his second goal of the game.Bowburn Fc travelled to Framwellgate Moor Wmc, It was Bowburn kept the pressure on the two teams above them with a 5-2 away win at framwellgate moor in a equal first half Bowburn took over in the second and should have scored more, goals from Robbie Hurton 2 own goal substitute Ray Pirt and m.o.m. Jack Carr. Pelw Grange Dogs entertained New Brancepeth Wmc ,Both teams were up for this game and it was a shame the pitch was so hard but thats football.

The pick of the goals was a stunning volley by young Callum Walton Ferryhill's hero.Quarrington Hill Wmc travelled to Burnmoor Jnrs Another cracking game between these two competitive sides. Burnmoor were excellent from the off and created a host of chances in the first 20 minutes only to be denied by a string of fine saves by young keeper Jordan Nicholson. In the 21st min Dan Beaney scored after being put through by Luke Jury. Second half was more even and end to end. Burnmoor getting a goal worked from a throw in and Q Hill grabbing 2 in 2 mins. The first, a surging run from left back by Lee Carter finishing with a cross / shot, and then Dan Beaney getting his second of the game. Goal of the game was Q Hills 4th, Jeff Dean finishing a fine move, before Burnmoor made it 2-4. Q hill MOM was Jordan Nicholson A well fought battle by two hard working teams on this fine spring morning Washington Jays were at High Shincliffe, both teams plucked away in the first half with possession and chances fairly even. Jays started 2nd half stronger and clinched a goal through a goal-mouth scramble that could easily have been given a penalty but Seed's handball was over the line saving him a red card but couldn't stop the goal. High Shincliffe battled back and equalised
