further strengthened their position at the top of Division One as
       Rebecca  Price,  Megan  Vincer  and  Emily  Ball  gave  them  a  3-1  win  against
                 and  took  them  eleven  points  ahead  of  second  placed
                  , who drew 0-0 with           .                 came away from

       Grimethorpe LLUK sadly withdrew from Division One over the festive period and with their
       results expunged,           slipped from top spot (their 6-2 win over Grimethorpe
       one of six results no longer counting). AFC Doncaster began 2020 by completing the
       double over      , both games ending in double figure victories. Gemma Harte gave
       Doncaster the lead, but hosts Socrates soon levelled through Helen Kean with a chip from
       the left of the box. However, two goals, by Harte and Rachael Mullen, in quick succession
       put Doncaster in the ascendancy. Socrates were reduced to ten at the interval when Beth
       Hardy succumbed to the effects of a heavy cold. Lorna Mason increased the advantage
       to  4-1  before  Jess  Andrew  bagged  a  quickfire  hat-trick.  Further  goals  by  Charlotte
       Dinsdale (2), Vicki Hogg and Sam Pidgeon competed Doncaster’s 11-1 win to add to the
       thirteen-goal victory in the season’s earlier meeting. Unfortunately for Socrates, promoted
       from Division Two in the close season, their only points to date had been from a 2-1 win
       over Grimethorpe and with that score now removed, they slipped to bottom spot in the
       revised table which has           as the current leaders. Leanne Corns and Abby
       Watkinson were on target in a 2-1 win over    whose reply came from Charlotte
       McCourt. Millmoor are two points clear of AFC Doncaster, who have two games in hand.
                                            enjoy a healthy twelve point lead in Division
       Two, where second placed                 have four games in hand. Wednesday
       made it nine wins from ten games with Hannah Jackson (2), Megan Hammond, Millie
       Simms  and  Eleanor  Vessey  on  target  in  a  5-2  success  over      .
       Millmoor, who, like Wednesday, have dropped just three points, enjoyed a 4-0 away win
       over               Development  thanks  to  a  hat-trick  from  Jess  Baker,  with  Dayna
       Antcliffe also on target. Sara Tyler was the day’s top individual scorer as she netted five
       for              in their 7-1 victory at         , Sarah Anderson adding the
       other away goals. Megan Croft and Mikayla Harper scored for    in their 2-1 win
       over                       who lost for only the second time.
       Somerset League
                          head  the  Division  One  table  on  goal  difference  following  their
       eleven-goal victory over              on Sunday. Zoe Ridley was on target four
       times while Olivia Bees and Poppy Lott added a further two, with Jade Munro, Ellie-May
       Hart and Jessica Lumber completing the scoring.          also scored eleven
       times against       to stay level on points with Keynsham, spearheaded by hat-tricks
       from Emily Crook and Imogen Miller with Abigail Parr (2), Charlotte Cross, Willow Dyke and
       Sophie Lewis adding the others.        defeated      5-0 and are three points
       off the pace in third, Alex Gwyther hitting a hat-trick with Rosy Jones and Beth Knight also
       on target.           moved into the top half after Vanessa Brill, Sarah Galley and
       Daisy Goldsmith gave them a 3-2 victory over         .
