DROITWICH, needing a win to keep in the running for promotion, made a good start when Guy Sambrook scored from a penalty corner and Andy Harris netted from a Leon Walters cross before half time.

Further second half goals came from Barry Williams (two), Nick Bates and another penalty corner goal from Sambrook.

The visitors were awarded a late penalty flick after 'keeper Mark Gwilliam was adjudged to have made an illegal clearance from goal, but he then made amends with an excellent save to keep a clean sheet.

Next week Droitwich have a week off league fixtures with a friendly against Wolverhampton.
