Oxford Hawks gave newly-promoted Slough 2nd a lesson as they handed out a 10-0 hiding to go top of Premier Division 2 in the South League.

Hawks put the visitors under the cosh with wave upon wave of attacks, but had to wait 17 minutes before breaking the deadlock via Craig Larner’s first goal for the club.

Jack Biggs added a second from a penalty corner and after keeper Phil Hargreaves had saved a Slough penalty, Sam Chilvers made it 3-0.

The second half was one-way traffic and the goals flowed from James Ward (3), Chilvers, Larner, Joe Brownhill and Ted Bennet.

Banbury went down 3-2 at home to Milton Keynes in Premier 1.

The visitors led 2-0 at half-time, the first a Charlie Murphy own goal, before Royden Burt and Simon Boardman levelled, only for Milton Keynes to snatch the winner.

The new Oxford club recorded their first success with a 4-3 win over Maidenhead in Middlesex, Berks, Bucks & Oxon Regional 1.

Dan Bleach and Dan Smyth put Oxford 2-0 up, Maidenhead pulling one back and then levelling early in the second half.

Smyth made it 3-2 before Maidenhead replied.

Keeper Chris Mitty kept the scores level, and with a minute left, Smyth completed his hat-rick to clinch victory.

Wallingford triumphed 4-0 at Wycombe in Regional Division 2.

They went ahead with a short -corner goal from Alun Lloyd, who made it 2-0 from open play.

Wycombe came on strong after the break, but Lloyd completed his hat-trick, and another goal from Horatio Cary ended their resistance.

Bicester came from behind to win 2-1 at Maidenhead 2nd in MBB&O Premier 1.

The home side went ahead with a deflected goal, but Bicester regrouped and two Harry Gaunt goals earned them the points.
