SANDFORD Football Club kicked off their 25/26 campaign in the Exeter and District Football League Division Six with an away trip to Awliscombe near Honiton on Saturday, August 30.

On a miserable afternoon with driving rain, mist and fog, Sandford ran out 2-0 winners with goals from Tudor Morgan Hugget on 15 minutes, making a welcome return to the team after suffering a broken leg over a year ago and Matt Baker scoring the second goal in the 68th minute.

Man of the match for Sandford was Tyler Morgan Hugget playing in the centre of defence.

Well done to all the players who to part on such a terrible afternoon.

Sandford’s next match is this Saturday at North Tawton, a local derby.

Come on the "ford”.
