The destination of the Senior Division title went to the wire last Wednesday evening as Fahad Nyanja and Rian Patel goals put AC Milano into a two goal lead before Louie Johnson and Solomon Ofori strikes for East London Ballers pulled them to within a goal of the title. AC Milano held on to finish 2-2 and secure the league title at full-time.
DIVISION THREE
A nail-biting conclusion to the Division Three race saw the top two sides meet on Sunday with Sonny Binet's hat-trick for Manford Way putting them ahead before Byron Red Star rallied back with a goal, knowing one more would flip the standings. The game ended 3-1 however meaning that Manford were able to take the title on goal difference.
DIVISION FIVE
The remaining game from Division Five saw Ping City Phoenixes facing Newbury Drive once more with the former needing a win to confirm second place. But Graham Byran's hat-trick and strikes from Luey Young and Billy Happe proved enough for Drive to win 4-2, Ryan Radley and Joe Powell scoring for Ping in consolation.
WEST ESSEX CUP FINAL
A tight affair in Sunday morning's West Essex Cup Final saw AC Milano get into a lead against Daglanta before the latter equalised to level the tie before the end of the ninety minutes. It was AC Milano who held their nerve in the shootout to win that 5-4 and secure a second trophy in four days.

The game on Sunday afternoon saw Prospect Protege and Alpha in their first finals as a club, battling for the West Essex Trophy. It was the former who scored twice at Oakside on the day to record a 2-0 win and allow Prospect Protege to go home with the trophy.
