Hednesford came up against a very physical Beacon side that caused Town plenty of problems with the football they played to leave them 2-0 down at the break. The second half saw Hednesford come out fighting and they matched them with the physical challenges and scored two fantastic goals from man of the match Jake Grainger to get his side level. But it wasn’t to be as Beacon scored again in the later stages of the game to come out winners.

The score line does not do justice to the Harriers as it was only two lapses in concentration that let Brewood score their goals, although they are a first Division team Hednesford matched them all over the pitch.

In their second game Hednesford came out convincing winners thanks to an 8-1 victory. Goals arrived from Henry Bland 4, Callum White 2 and one each from Jack Grainger and James Galvin.

The first half was a close affair with neither side managing to break through following some stout defending. The second half saw substitute Henry Bland slot past the keeper to give Town the lead. Just minutes from the end Tigers equalised though following a mix-up in the Town defence.

For the second week running Hednesford Town Harriers U9 had to field an under strength team. Their first game saw them truimph 13-0 against Wyrley, but the second game they ended up losing 3-0 to Wednesfied. A big well done to all the lads who all battled hard in both games.

Chase took the lead when Town failed to clear from a corner. In a game of two halves due to the sloping pitch Hednesford came back strongly in the second half and it was no surprise when Mitch Candlin fired past the Chase keeper to equal the scores.
