Saturday in the Commercial Knockout Cup at White Hill Field.

But it wasn't until midway through the second half that they were able to crack the Onions defence. Derek Thomas' 65th minute opener led to a rush of goals as all five came in a 22 minute period.

Donnie Smith scored the second in the 66th minute before Tim Pertry made it 3-0 in the 70th and Allan Mooney and Paul Scope (penalty) closed out the scoring with the fourth and fifth goals in the 85th and 87th minutes.

No referee showed up for the other cup match between Lobster Pot and Bermuda Pest Control which Lobster Pot won 6-0.

The withdrawal of four clubs has caused the Shell Youth League's under-12 developmental programme to be overhauled.

Hamilton Parish, Paget and Dandy Town fell by the wayside early and when St.

George's failed to show for the second week running, organisers were forced into a rethink over a schedule which unchanged would have seen several teams go weeks without opposition.

The rescheduling, plus a late decision by Saltus to field two teams, results in virtually a full slate of matches for this Saturday as well the addition of a new venue.

All Under-12 coaches have been summmoned to a meeting at Bermuda Football Association tomorrow (6.00 p.m.) when they will be brought up to date on the changes and furnished with a new schedule which carries the programme to April 11.

LAWSON SAILS INTO NARROW LEAD SLG Lawson sails into narrow lead After 12 races, 13-year-old Lawson Williams is narrowly leading 11-year-old Husayn Brown in the 30-race qualification series for places in the Optimist Dinghy World Championships in Martinique in July.

In last Sunday's four races in the Great Sound in winds of 12-18 knots, Brown sailed immaculately to post three firsts and a second to close the gap on Williams.

AJ Black, 14, is sitting in third place, narrowly ahead of lightweight Jesse Kirkland. Another lightweight, James Doughty, 12, revelled in the heavier air to move into fifth place overall.

Racing resumes in the Great Sound this Sunday.
