By CUPFC Info

1sts win by 6 - 2 scoreline in last two matches; Reserves draw and defeated

CUP FC 1st team ended their first season back in the Kershaw Premier in style with a pair of 6 - 2 victories in 4 days.

The 1sts hosted local rivals Cherry Hinton on Wednesday 2nd May, and they never looked back after a blistering 1st half to run out 6 - 2 victors in their penultimate match of the season. Dan scored of the 4 goals with Jose bagging a brace.

The 1sts followed this up with another 6 - 2 win on the Saturday. Dan grabbed another hat-trick while Jose earned his second brace in as many matches and Sam got his 6th since re-signing for the club.

An impressive end to 2017-18, winning 5 of their 6 matches and scoring 30 goals, helped CUP secure 5th place in their first season back in the Prem and setting a good platform for next season.

The Reserves played their final home match of the season on Thursday 3rd May, hosting Needingworth United in Senior B, knowing at least a point will ensure a league finish above the visitors. A 2 - 0 lead, from Callum and a Baz penalty, became trailing 3 - 2 at half time, before Lee notched for the third match in a row to earn a 3 - 3 draw.

Saturday saw the Reserves conclude 2017-18 on their travels at Witchford 96, playing their 4th match in 8 days. A 4 - 1 defeat ensued, Ryan T scoring the goal, meaning CUP finished their mixed campaign 13th in the Senior B table.

The Player of the Year evening, originally planned for Saturday 5th May, takes place a week later on the 12th May at the Cass.
