The Lambs hosted Paignton Saints 2nd XI in Division Two and won out 3-2 with Aaron Hughes and Daniel Udo amongst the goals. This was part of an ideal weekend for the club with the 1st XI beating Ivybridge Town by four goals to one in the FA Vase and their 3rd XI also prevailing.

Also triumphing in the competition were Newton Abbot Spurs 2nds whilst True Blues and East Allington United fell at the first hurdle.

The big game in the top-flight between Kingsteignton Athletic and Lakeside Athletic went to the visitors who enjoyed a 4–1 victory and remain the early pacesetters.

In Division Two, Gampton Utd and Newton Abbot Spurs 3rds share top spot following good wins.
