Sheffield & Hallamshire League
       AFC  Bentley  concluded  their  fixtures  with  a  2-0  win  over  Sheffield  Utd  Community
       Foundation, thanks to goals from Gemma Harte (the division’s top scorer) and Jo Rice. This result
       between  the  third  and  fourth  place  teams  meant  Bentley  finished  seven  points  clear  of  their
       opponents in the Division One final table.
             There were two topsy-turvy 4-3 away wins in Division Two. Amie Webster netted the game’s
       decisive  final  goal  for  third  place  Socrates  at  Sheffield  Wednesday  Development.  Claire
       Attrill,  Sophie  Shemeld  and  Amber  Wilson  scored  the  earlier  goals  for  Socrates,  while  Hannah
       Jackson (2) and Freya Wilson were on target for Wednesday.
             Worsbrough  Bridge  Athletic  won  4-3  at  Sheffield  Utd  Community  Res  whose
       defeat  condemned  them  to  finish  in  bottom  place.  Both  Jenna  Portess  and  Rachel  Nosworthy
       (including  the  winner)  netted  twice  for
       Worsbrough  who  ended  their  season  with  a  Bedfordshire & Hertfordshire
       brace  of  wins,  to  pull  well  clear  of  the  bottom
       place  they  had  occupied  earlier  in  April.  In  PREMIER DIVISION  P  W  D  L  F  A Pts
