Letchworth have won the league title - and they owe a huge debt to their second team.
The first XI won Division Two South after defeating Chelmsford thirds 6-2 with goals from Ian Heywood (hat-trick), Scott Aps (two) and Robbie Balsom.
This was only possible as their own second XI beat previous leaders Wapping seconds 2-1 with goals from Ian Crosse and Matthew Spreckley to finish in third place and hand the first team the title.
Letchworth thirds beat their Stevenage counterparts 4-0 thanks to two goals apiece from Ben Abbott and Tom McIntyre Brown.

The fifths conceded their game 3-0 to Winchmore Hill and Enfield fourth XI as they were unable to raise a side.
