Southern League Premier South

BRACKNELL TOWN confirmed their place in the play-offs with a draw on the final day of the regular league season against Hayes & Yeading United.

After going into the break goalless, there was a flurry of goals in the second-half.

With three goals each, the points were shared which was enough for the Robins to secure their play in the top six by a single point.
