PHIL Layton rattled in four goals as Bidford BC Reserves won a thrilling Cutler Division two contest at Henley Forest.

The hosts found the net five times as defences crumbled with Layton in particular causing havoc. Brother Richard also got in on the act with one of Bidford's seven in an amazing result.

The section was the one for goals with Alcester's Evans hitting a hat-trick in a 5-3 win at Spartak Park. Claverdon's Aust also bagged a treble as his side made comfortable progress in the Division One Cup at FISSC.

Shipston Excelsior relied on three different scorers in their 3-0 win at Halfords. Danks, Burrows and Aizpuru were the men on the mark.

Vaisiere was one of three players to hit the net and his brace helped defeat Henley Forest 4-1.

An own goal helped Campden Town to a 3-1 win at Arrow Valley. Traynor and Halbert grabbed the Cots-wolds newcomers' other goals.

Welford's Sutton and Quinton's Sayer ensured a share of Herald Division One spoils, while two from Shoust proved the key to Shipston's second string's narrow defeat of Alcester in the section's knockout cup.
