The first two games of the season for Winfarthing FC in Division 3A have seen them find the net on no less than 20 occasions. This time they hit 11 as they ran out comfortable winners against Freethorpe.

In Division C, Swanton Morley found the net a staggering 21 times against Happisburgh Hammers – but there were mitigating circumstances as the Hammers had only nine men, with four players calling off before the game.
