Pinhoe Spartans v Heavitree Youth 12/09/09
Pinhoe created the early chances but Heavitree gradually grew into the game with pace getting beyond the Pinhoe defence. Heavitree took the lead when Matt Higgins scored with a cool finish into the bottom corner after being put through on goal. Pinhoe responded strongly and won a penalty but Greg Wilmington saved brilliantly for Heavitree. On 25 minutes Pinhoe equalised and the game remained evenly contested. Heavitree regained the lead following a well worked move that saw Jordi Baitup strike a long range shot into the top corner. Despite pressure from Pinhoe it looked like Heavitree would hold on for victory until Pinhoe equalised with 6 minutes to go. With their spirits up, and the benefit of playing down the slope, Pinhoe snatched a last gasp winner with a long range strike from George Mason.
Final Score: Pinhoe Spartans 3 Heavitree Youth 2.

Stoke Hill v Heavitree Youth 19/09/09
A nightmare start for Heavitree going 2 nil down after 10 minutes as a result of basic defensive errors. However a spirited fightback saw them level at half time with 2 goals from Ricky Bruce. After the interval Heavitree dominated and Ricky Bruce scored again to complete his first ever hat-trick for Heavitree. After one or two nervous moments Heavitree had a another spell of pressure late on and got their fourth and killer goal through Luke Hutchins. It could have been worse for Stoke Hill with Heavitree hitting the bar late on, but the game ended with Heavitree the deserved winners. Final score: Stoke Hill 2 Heavitree Youth 4.
