BECKETT LEAGUE: Friday evening saw Kirkbymoorside Sports Club host the annual newitts.com Beckett League Ryedale Hospital Cup final, with Division One champions Wombleton Wanderers hammering fellow top-flight side Amotherby & Swinton 7-1.
Wombleton began the game at a blistering pace as Jack Simpson lobbed Amotherby keeper Nick Lock twice inside the opening 10 minutes.
Simpson was brought down in the penalty area and completed his hat-trick from the spot with 15 minutes on the clock. Simpson soon grabbed a fourth, squeezing a low finish past Lock at his near post.
The second half began with Amotherby & Swinton seeing more of the ball and Oliver Towse saw his spot-kick saved by Wombleton goalkeeper Tom Poor, but managed to tap home the rebound.
Respite would however be short-lived as Luke McLaren netted a brace of goals, while John Emmerson converted the third penalty-kick of the evening.
