Games to be played 30th April-6th May

The reserve side picked up a credible three points against mid table Mortimer on Monday. This was sandwiched between narrow losses on Saturday and Wednesday. They complete their 15/16 campaign in the coming week visiting Woodcote Stoke Row on Saturday before hosting basement side Highmoor Ibis reserves on Wednesday.

The 'A' side also play twice in the next seven days to close their season. On Saturday they are away at Baughurst AFC; a Woodley win will see them go above their opponents. Then on the Friday they play Hurst reserves in the final of the Berkshire Trophy Centre Junior Cup.

The 'B' team are also playing a team from Hurst; they go to their 'A' side knowing that they will finish seventh regardless of result.

The under 15's visit Rushmoor Saints Youth Colts. Woodley will finish bottom unless they can win and hope other results go their way. The under 14's Meteors will finish their season in mid table. They go to second placed Caversham AFC Cougars.

Featured age group – under 12's

The Spitfires still have an outside chance of winning division one. A win at third placed Marlow Youth on Thursday is required they then have to rely on West Berks Warriors to slip up in both their remaining games. Whatever happens it has been a great season and they still have a cup final to look forward to on the 22nd May.

Sunday teams

The first team finish their season with two difficult away games in three days. On Sunday they face third placed Richfield Rovers reserves then on Tuesday play second placed Tilehurst Club (The). United are in desperate need of the points to avoid finishing bottom. The reserves also end their campaign with a tough fixture; they visit champions Bracknell Saint Germain. A Woodley win could see them up to two places to sixth.
