Littlehampton HC finish fifth

In their first season since reforming, Littlehampton finished the campaign with just one defeat in their last nine games.

On Saturday, Littlehampton took the lead after just 15 minutes when top-scorer Jon Miles scored with a reverse flick from a short corner.

Miles then made it 2-0, after beating three players, for his 29th goal of the season.

Littlehampton further dominated the second half, and Steve Jenkins got the third with a neat finish.

Simon Judd quickly added a brace, before captain Colin Warner completed the scoring.

Miles and Judd both missed chances to complete their hat-tricks.

On Saturday, Littlehampton travel to Hailsham, who finished ninth in the Premier Division, for their Sussex Plate semi-final. Hit-back is at 3.30pm.

LITTLEHAMPTON: Keeley, Clarke, Thompson, Philips, Davies, Warner, Caulkin, Elliot, Miles, Judd, Jenkins.
