Congratulations to AFC Portchester who were crowned Division One South champions without kicking a ball after they were awarded their game against Fleet Town. This mean that, regardless of the result in their final game at Havant, The Hawks can no longer catch Portchy. Before that news came through, Portchester had already progressed to the County Cup Quarter-Final with a 2-1 win at Stoneham. On Sunday only one game was played in each division. In the Premier League Badshot Lea's season ended with a 7-0 defeat at home to Wycombe. In the North Penn & Tylers Green put themselves in pole position for second spot when they defeated Milton United 3-1 and, in the South Fleet beat local rivals Rushmoor by the odd goal in five, earning their first three pointer oof the season in their final outing.
Wednesday 17th 19:45 Hampshire Senior Cup
AFC Stoneham 1-2 AFC Portchester
As expected, there was very little between these two teams. Millie Bradbury nodded home the opener for Portchester before Larnie Bisson scored a superb equaliser. The game was decided with under 20 minutes to go by a delightful second goal from Millie Bradbury, curling the ball past Lucy Venables. You can read the match blog here (Portchy Progress).

Fleet Town 3-2 Rushmoor Community
An end of season basement local derby that turned into a shootout between the respective top scorers, Dot Usher and Emma Mutch, who must have mustered close to 20 attempts between the two of them. Usher put Fleet ahead early on, before Mutch equalised in the 18th minute. Kira Barker then had the hosts back in front from the spot, but that was short-lived when Iona Quinn equalised again. Usher had the final word, smashing in from a corner early in the second half. Read the full match blog here (Shoot On Sight)

Sunday Fixtures
Premier
Warminster Town v Wycombe Wanderers
The final game of the Premier League season has no more riding on it than the challenge to finish fifth or sixth. Warminster currently sit in fifth, a point above Wycombe. A repeat of the reverse fixture, a 2-2 draw, would see Town retain that position. On that day in September Charlotte Hill opened the scoring for Wanderers who then found themselves 2-1 at the break thanks to Mia Blazey and Rebecca Snelling. However, Katie Riddington levelled it up just past the hour mark.

Division One North
Milton United v Eversley & California
United need to win by six goals to go above Wycombe into second spot. Even then, two wins for Penn in their final games would see the Buckinghamshire side leapfrog them. The sides have not yet met this season. The reverse fixture was awarded to Milton as a walkover. The Boars still have six games remaining and need a minimum of three more points to stay ahead of Caversham at the bottom.

Whatever the outcome of this game and the league match, Havant have had a superb season after jumping up two divisions.

Oxford United v Oxford City
It doesn't get much more local than this cup final. Not only do the clubs share a city, they also share a stadium with both playing at City's Court Place Farm Stadium. One thing they don't share is a division. United hold sway in that department, currently playing in the National League Southern Premier, two divisions above City. No doubt it will be keenly contested. United's Zoe Barratt is second in the league scoring charts with 23 goals in 26 games. City can boast the top two scorers in their league, 19 goal Emily Harris and 24 goal Ellie White.
