The Under 16 Division One title will be settled this Sunday (10.30am kick off) when top two Stamford AFC and Thorpe Wood Rangers face off at Borderville.

A draw would do for the home side who have a superior goal difference.

JUNIOR ALLIANCE LEAGUE

The Under 13 Division One title race was due to be decided by a Wednesday night game between top two Yaxley and Deeping Rangers Claret at Leading Drove (5.30pm).

Yaxley need a point to clinch top spot. A Deeping win would force a play off as goal difference does not apply in Junior Alliance matches.

Deeping missed the chance to move level with Yaxley on Sunday when beaten 4-2 at third-placed Park Farm Pumas for whom Humberto Balodis (2), Charlie Whitty and Dexter Willingham scored.

Flynn Parkhill and Henry Randall scored for Deeping.

Peterborough Lions forced a play-off for the Under 14 Division Two title with Wisbech St Mary by beating Whittlesey 10-0 in their final game.

Marvelous Johnson Osabuoyen and Riley Tether both scored four for Lions with Ly'kyi Thomas-Wright and Brandon Majuru completing the scoring.

A date and venue for the title decider has yet to be announced. It must be played before June 1.
