Two teams are celebrating after lifting titles in the Hitchin Sunday League.

North Herts Hatters were the first to do so, winning the Division Three crown on the back of a 5-0 win one week earlier against Lea Sports.

They only needed a point from their final three games but did it in style in what was the only match to survive last week's wet weather.

The opening goal of the game came midway through the first half after some lovely team play from Hatters.

After working the ball across the midfield looking for an opening, Scott Antoniak swung in a lovely cross to the back post where top scorer Jones volleyed home.

A great save and the post prevented Callum McKenna and Shaun Turner from adding to the lead in the first half but there was no such problems in the second period.

McKenna won and then scored a penalty shortly after the restart and then doubled his own tally after good work down the right culminated in Jamie Gooderham flicking the ball in behind the defence.

Hatters were now threatening with every attack and after some fine saves from the Lea Sports keeper, captain Nathaniel Liburd made it 4-0 with a fierce strike from outside the box. 

The final goal was scored by man of the match McKenna with a towering header from a Matthew Marsden corner.

This was a first league title for the club since they were reformed in 2019 and a first since 2014.

Steven Young was a player 10 years ago and is now the manager.

He said: "The lads have been brilliant all season and never got ahead of themselves.

"They fully deserve this and I’m proud of them all."

Coach & Horses were the other title winners, retaining their Division One title.

They won 7-2 against Chells Rovers after being 5-0 up at the break.  

After last week's washout, there was meant to be a full fixture list but only another seven survived on some of the less waterlogged pitches.

Division Three had two of them and after the joy of one week earlier, the Hatters lost for the first time, going down 3-1 to Feed Up Warm Up.

Saint Evenage went third behind them following a 5-2 win over Cronies.

Division Two is now the only division without a winner but the two games played concerned mid-table and the relegation battle.

Bottom of the table Buffs got their third point of the season with a 1-1 draw with fourth placed GSS while The Cock are now fifth after beating Stotfold Juniors 7-1.

There were three cup games played as well.

St Ippolyts booked their place in the third round of the George John Cup by beating Niche 2-1.

In group A of the Subsidiary Cup, Pied Piper were at home against Squirrel Taverners while Hitchin Rovers were at home against Arlesey Town, drawing 2-2.
