Rush Common, Abingdon lifted the Carslaw Cup for Vale of White Horse Primary Schools with a convincing 4-1 win over Goring at Dunmore Junior School, Abingdon.

In a final played in driving rain virtually throughout, Rush Common took an early lead through Marcus Hooke.

But Tony Newell's scorching drive hauled Goring level before the break.

However, Rush Common dominated the second half and a brace from John Mills plus a Luke Venn strike gave them victory.

It's Rush Common's second success in Vale of White Horse competitions this season following their indoor six-a-side triumph.

Head teacher John Fisher said: "We are all very proud of the team's success in taking the Carslaw Cup.

"It has been a long-time coming home again - the last time Rush Common won the trophy was in 1992. Eight years ago we shared the cup with Botley.

"It has been an outstanding season for the school. We have won two finals and finished runners-up in three other competitions. We shall have to think about buying a new display cabinet, so we can get in all the trophies."

Goring had better fortune in the Vale East open six-a-side final where they defeated Cholsey 1-0 in the final at Berinsfield, both semi-finals having been decided by penalties.
