AFC Uckfield Town won their final home league match of the season

The Uckers beat Alfold by the only goal at the Oaks - Luke Blewden scoring the winner early in the second half.

Crowborough Athletic were without a game on Saturday. Jarvis Brook won four-one at Rottingdean in Division Two of the Southern Combination League.

In the Mid Sussex League, Rotherfield lost three-nil at Lindfield.

Ridgewood played out a goal-less draw at the Uckfield All-weather pitch.

There was a big win for Nutley, who thrashed ‘Open Arms’ seven-nil. Hartfield were beaten four-one at Crowborough’s third team.

In the Isthmian Premier Division, Lewes remain in the play-off zone, as they battled for a point from a two-all draw at Cheshunt, despite playing most of the second half with ten men.

Brighton and Hove Albion’s recent slump came to an end with an excellent two-one victory at Arsenal.

In cricket, Sussex lost the opening match of their County Championship campaign at Hove yesterday, going down to a ten-wicket defeat by Nottinghamshire.

And finally, congratulations to everyone from Uckfield, Crowborough and the surrounding areas who completed yesterday’s Brighton Marathon.
