Premier Division

Once again there were just four games played in the Ladies Premier Division of the Corsham Print Wiltshire Senior League. This week league leaders Marlborough Town were able to play their game and took full advantage to increase their lead at the top of the table to five points with a 2-0 away win at Highworth Town thanks to goals from Victoria Goldson and Erin Robinson.

Second placed Melksham Town lost ground when they were beaten 3-0 at home by FC Abbey Meads. Amelia Fowles set the visitors on the way to victory with the opening goal just before the half hour mark. Michelle Rich then doubled FC Abbey Meads lead early in the second half before a third from substitute Brinliegh Gallagher 17 minutes from time made sure of the points for FC Abbey Meads. FC Abbey Meads sit fourth in the table six points behind leaders Marlborough Town but with a game in hand.

Calne Town picked up their second win of the season with a 3-1 away success against Purton Kingsdown  who have yet to win at home in the league. Goals from Isobel Satchell, Hannah Bishop and Milly Price secured the three points for Calne, Ellis Dyke with the solitary goal for Purton Kingsdown. The win for Calne saw them move above their neaten opponents and Highworth Town into sixth spot in the table.

Westbury Ladies were the biggest winners of the afternoon smashing 16 goals past a struggling Trowbridge Wanderers who are finding it tough in the top division after their promotion last season after they finished runners-up in Division One behind Marlborough Town. Alice Bevan had an enjoyable afternoon scoring five of the Westbury goals, Rebecca Guy bagged a brace and there was one apiece for Olivia Dennett, Chloe Harkness, Millie Light, Sian McCarthy and Naomi Tippetts, the remaining goals coming by way of own goals scored by Trowbridge players. Barbara Swan was at the game with her camera and more of her excellent pictures can be found on the League Facebook Group Page.

The game between Swindon Supermarine and Keynsham Town "A" was postponed with Keynsham unable to raise a side and they will be the latest team from the division to be subject to a discipline charge.

Division One

There was a full schedule of five games played in Division One on Sunday with three sides looking to defend a perfect record in the league. Unfortunately for Malmesbury Vics their unblemished record was lost when they fell to a 2-1 away defeat against a much-improved Blunsdon side who for the second week running inflicted a defeat on a previously unbeaten opponent. Two goals from Lyndsey Plant secured the three points for Blunsdon, a tenth of the season from Emilee Collier in reply for Malmesbury Vics.

No such problem for FC Chippenham who made it four wins from four league games with a 6-3 home win over Bishops Cannings. Tyler Webb led the way helping herself to a hat-trick with further goals from Amy Totterdell, Ella Johnson and a third of the season from Lily Ayhan. On target for Bishops Cannings were Elsie Brewer with two and Lucy-Anne Skinner with her first league goal of the season to add to her hat-trick in the recent County Cup game against Stratton.

Salisbury had been struggling for a side earlier in the week and were forced to sign on a number of their U18 side in order to be able to fulfil the fixture against Ferndale Rodbourne. The youngsters stepped up in style to help Salisbury maintain their 100% winning record and move top of the table. Ferndale Rodbourne held Salisbury at bay until just before half time when Imogen Campbell broke the deadlock after good work from Jade Randall. Having made the breakthrough Salisbury went on to score five more times, Campbell scoring two more to register a hat-trick on her debut for the senior side, Brooke Nash another debut maker scored twice, with Danica Pomroy getting the other Salisbury goal.

Marlborough Town Reserves moved up to fifth place with a 3-1 win over Durrington who continue to show improvement after a couple of heavy defeats at the start of the season. Two goals from Daisy Cox and one from Kerry Ash secured the three points for Marlborough with Skyla Meli getting the Durrington goal.

Biggest winners of the day in the division were Staverton Rangers who registered their first win of the season in the process scoring 12 times against Purton Kingsdown Reserves who scored three goals of their own in a high scoring match. Maisie Harris led the way for Staverton scoring a double hat-trick with Sophie Barham, Darcy Bush, Evelyn Brewer, Hannah Higgs and Phoebe Vick all scoring one apiece with the other Staverton goal coming courtesy of an own goal. Lorna Newton with two and one from Maz Hobbs in reply for Purton Kingsdown Reserves.
