Bournemouth Sports clinched the Dorset Premier League title for the first time in their history securing a 2-0 win at Hamworthy United Reserves. 

The majority of the first half was a tense affair and somewhat scrappy game as the visitors struggled to gain any momentum or fluency to their game. 

However they went ahead in the 33rd minute when winger Taylor Webb followed up to head home from close range after a corner which saw Cameron Shaw’s header come off the underside of the crossbar for Webb to pounce. 

Moments later a fierce shot from Taylor Edwards went just over the crossbar whilst at the other end pacey winger Rhudy Ntoumda saw his fierce shot going across the face of the Bournemouth goal and just wide of the target. HT 0-1

Sam Darlow scored his 27th goal of the season with a clever back heel from close range in the 52nd minute whilst the hosts almost pulled one back ten minutes later when a player headed just wide of the target from a set play. Sports player coach Joe White went close in the 74th minute when played in, but was denied by Hammers keeper Josh Wallis. Sam Darlow almost added his second of the afternoon late on in the game, but again Wallis kept out his effort with a fine save. 

So Bournemouth Sports are now on 71 points and with one league game still remaining. A recent run of seven successive wins has seen the men from Chapel Gate finish the season in pole position and create a bit of club history in the process.
