Elsewhere, there was a 4-2 win for Hendon Hawks over Redbridge Jewish Care B, while Alyth Belsize came away from Stonegrove Park with a 2-1 win, Daniel Kuber scoring for the home side.


U12
One tie in the first round of the Woody's Cup saw Redbridge Jewish Care defeat AC Whetstone 3-0.

In the league, leaders HMH dropped their first points of the season as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Alyth Belsize White.

A closely fought game saw HMH Purple take the lead through George Goldberg, but an equaliser by Dominic Levene ended HMH's 100% record. Both goalkeepers were called into action with several saves from the HMH keeper keeping HMH in the game, whilst a last minute save by Max Kramer for the Whites ensured the points were shared.

Brady Maccabi consolidated their mid-table position as they came away from HMH Blue with a 4-1 win thanks to goals from Josh Cohen, Ben Dubiner, Adam Feldman and Adam Hilsenrath. Mendel Rader replied for HMH.


U10
HIS Hendon United White extended their lead at the top of the table, though they failed to take maximum points from their games against Hendon Hawks Leopards. Having been held to a goalless draw in the first game, two goals from Jeremy Ullman plus Shimon Ellerman's strike saw them to a 3-1 win in the second game. Motti Rotenberg scored the Hawks' consolation goal.

HMH Green moved up into joint-third after they got the better of Stonegrove Park. After the first game ended in a 1-1 draw, Alan Berkowitz and Zac Taibel scoring respectively, two goals each from Ben Mohr and Louis Salem saw HMH to a 4-2 win. Sam Jacobs and Taibel scoring Park's two goals.

Elsewhere, HMH Red and Brady Maccabi White shared the points. Brady won the first game 1-0, before goals from Gideon Ezra and Josh Taylor saw HMH to a 2-0 win in the second game.

Finally, the bottom two sides went head-to-head and it resulted in Alyth Belsize recording their first two wins - and points - of the season as they beat HIS Hendon United Blue 1-0 and 3-2. Joss Bogod scored the winner in the first game, with Daniel Bernbaum, Josh Levi and Anton Baleanu all scoring in their second win. Simon Mizrahi and Eli Dunner scoring for HIS in the second game.
