A season-long battle between Stamford AFC and Thorpe Wood Rangers for Under 16 Division One supremacy in the Peterborough & District Youth League was finally settled on Sunday, May 28.

​A title decider was played out at Stamford’s Borderville ground with the hosts needing a point to thwart their biggest rivals.

And a tense, passionate game in front of a sizeable crowd was won 2-1 by Stamford who gained revenge for their League Cup Final defeat at the hands of Thorpe Wood last month.

Alfie Lee fired Stamford in front on 16 minutes with a neat 18-yard strike into the corner before a Thorpe Wood equaliser 10 minutes into the second half.

But the home side rallied and won the game and the title with an Eden Thomas header from a corner on the hour mark.

It was still a good season for the city side who also reached the Northants Under 16 County Final where they were beaten 2-0 by Wellingborough Whitworth.

Yaxley clinched the Peterborough & District Junior Alliance Under 13 Division One title after a last-game 0-0 draw with Deeping Rangers Clarets.

Deeping needed to win the game to force a play-off for the title with Yaxley.

Peterborough Lions and Wisbech St Mary finished level on points at the top of Under 14 Division Two, but decided to share the title rather than contest a play-off.

Goal difference is not applicable in the Junior Alliance League.

Moulton Harrox beat Warboys Town 3-1 on penalties after a 2-2 draw to win the Peterborough & District League Cup Final at Yaxley FC.
