Man of the match for the event was presented to defender Jayden Whiteman, Ben Gutteridge and Brandon Innes scored for the whites in their 4-2 defeat at home to Stapleford Town, in a remarkable game at West Bridgford Priory’s under 8 Saturday team lost by the odd goal in fifteen as they lost 8-7, the U8's Green travelled to Long Eaton hoping for a better result of their game 2 weeks prior. Daniel Bailey and Harrison Whalley worked hard in defence to keep the score at half time to 1-1, after Taylor-James Booth had equalised for Priory. Although it was a much improved performance the lads fell to a 5-1 defeat. Daniel Bailey & Harrison Whalley jointly claimed the Parent's Players and Harrison Fields claiming the Manager's Player of the match.

Priory U10 White entertained Aslockton Cranmers on Thursday night at KLC, it was a physical game which Priory had to adjust to, as Aslockton didn't give Priory any time on the ball to play their normal passing game, but Priory overcame this and ran out the stronger of two team with a well deserved 3-1 victory, with goals 2 goals from Lewis Deavin & 1 from Ben Williamson. Josh Brambly claiming Man of the Match, they then continued their good unbeaten run with their second win of the week against West Bridgford Outlaws in a 3-2 win, a cross from Craig Bailey landed at Jake Paynes foot who finished off the move with a goal. Lewis Deavin scored his 3rd goal of the week and Alfie Gallagher scoring the winning goal. The Under 10 Hoops continued the trend in scoring plenty of goals on Sunday morning by beating Sherwood FC 7-0, whilst the Under 10 Greens returned from the long trip to Lowdham with the points after a good 4-2 win.
The Unders 11’s Whites lost 4-1 on Saturday to West Wridgford Arrows, in an end to end game, WB just took their chances. Jake Dawes with the goal and Ross Carlin with man of the match award, perhaps result of the weekend went to the revitalised Under 12 White squad who beat Southwell City Cobras 2-1 despite going behind to an early goal, two goals from Ben Howard, the second with the last kick of the game giving the Whites their first three points of the season, the Under 12 Greens crashed to their second defeat in a week at a very strong West Hallam Juniors and the Sunday team also returned back from East Leake pointless after a 5-1 reversal.

In youth league action, the Under 15 Green squad made their first ever trip to FC Huthwaite returning with a point after a 1-1 draw and the Seniors continued their good start to the season with a 1-1 draw away at NU New Boys, not so good for the Veterans squad who lost 5-1 at Mickleover.
In the girls section the Under 15’s entertained local neighbours Rolls Royce in a derby game, for a while it looked like a Beth Garner strike was enough to earn three points for the girls but Rolls fought back and scored four quick goals to claim the points, the Under 13 Girls though would have took great confidence in their performance away at Collingham, despite losing 3-2 the girls put in their best performance on the season, Kaitlin Fox scoring both the goals for the Priory girls
