7:00am Tuesday 14th February 2012 in Sport

SWINDON Rangers A cruised into the final of the Under 10 League Cup after beating club rivals Swindon Rangers B 7-1.

The A team held a 2-0 lead at half time, and then added three more in a five-minute period after the interval.

Two more followed to take the tally to seven, although the B team found the net for a consolation.

Scoring for the A team were Charlie Begley (2), Jack Paines (2), Regan Lach, Gregor Thompson and Joel Sooben.

Highworth Town Juniors H booked their place in the final courtesy of a 5-2 triumph over Shaw A.

They went into a 2-0 lead thanks to a Harvey Flippance double, before Shaw replied to make it 2-1 at half time.

Dylan Boulton (2) and Flippance added further goals after the break, the latter completing his hat-trick. A late stike from Shaw finished off the scoring.

• JOE McGrogan hit home the winning penalty as Ferndale Rodbourne progressed to the final of the Under 9 League Cup at the expense of Shrivenham & Watchfield.

Ferndale took the lead through a deflected shot from Ashley Fowler, but Shrivenham & Watchfield equalised before half time.

Both teams went in search of a winner after the break and Shrivenham & Watchfield hit the post, while Ferndale's player of the match, goalkeeper Lewis Kirk, made a number of superb saves.

In extra time Shrivenham & Watchfield got themselves in front from the penalty spot, but Ferndale grabbed an equaliser before the final whistle, as a dazzling run from Luke Rouse drew a fine save from the goalkeeper, and Fowler was on hand to complete his double.

McGrogan hit home the winning penalty in the shootout to enable Ferndale to go through.
