It was a clash of the titans to kick off the under-14 Royston Crow Youth League season.

Benington and Stevenage Town - winners of the under-13 league and under-13 league cup last season - met with Town running out winners by two goals to one this time.

Town, sponsored by BlueShield Fire Protection, had a successful pre-season campaign, winning both the Shefford Saints nine-a-side tournament and the Flitwick 11-a-side tournament.

The side (pictured) is managed by Phil Clark and Paul Worbey.
