For a team that only came up from Division Two this season, Kilgetty have made a solid start to this year's Division One campaign and manager Andrew Cope admits his team's performances have even taken him by surprise; especially after Saturday's 3-1 home win over St. Ishmaels.
Having lost their previous two games, Kilgetty got back to winning ways with a solid performance that should have netted them more goals.
"We played really well," was Cope's succinct assessment. "We've made a good start to the season and are ahead of where I expected us to be, to be honest. We're playing with confidence and style and are enjoying our football. Let's hope it continues."
If they carry on like this there is no reason why their good start cannot continue. They have certainly proved they are a team to be reckoned with now that five games have already been played and one player who has certainly made his mark is young Adam Johns.
Having joined from St. Florence, the teenager has impressed in every game and should have finished the game on Saturday with a hat-trick to his name. Unfortunately for him, he had to be content with a brace.
He scored the first and last of the home team's goals, with Nick Cope grabbing the one in between. Johns had his chances for a third, but just missed out. One shot was saved, while another skimmed just past the bar, although if he carries on with this run of form, that elusive hat-trick won't be too far away.
If Kilgetty's season has been better than expected, then Carew's has been nothing short of disastrous. With just one point from their five games, they are rooted firmly to the foot of the table and after Saturday's 7-1 drubbing away at Haverfordwest County, it looks like it could be a long and lonely season for this proud village club.
Narberth, meanwhile, narrowly lost out away at Merlins Bridge, with Raff Barnett and Harry Allen grabbing both the Bluebirds' goals in a 3-2 defeat. The results place the visitors third from bottom in the table, although this was a much-improved performance from Nigel Thomas's team and they were unlucky not to get a draw at least.
Division Two is shaping up to be one of the most closely contested divisions for quite some time, with Milford United, Prendergast Villa, Tenby and Saundersfoot Sports all proving to be competitive teams. Throw Milford Athletic and Camrose into the mix and that's six teams that could conceivable vie for promotion.
If this is the case then Saundersfoot will be more than happy they stole a march on Camrose after beating them 2-1 away from home.
"We deserved it," said player manager Danny Caine. "We were slightly the better side in an end to end game and I'm delighted with the result."
Sixteen-year-old Dan Bates got the ball rolling for the Sports with a magnificent volley from 18 yards. What was even more remarkable than the quality of the goal itself was the fact this was Bates's first start for the first team. Caine will be hoping this Rooneyesque start to life in the Sports' first team will continue for Bates as the team will only benefit from such talent.
Camrose equalised early in the second, but the winner came 10 minutes before the end when another youngster, 17-year-old Grant Hardy, came on as a substitute and with his first touch, proceeded to score a goal.
Not such good news for Manorbier United, however, as they lost 5-1 away to Haverfordwest Cricket Club, the only highlight being David Blackwell's solitary goal for the visitors. The result means Manorbier, like Pendine, who lost 7-0 away at Tenby, have just three points from matches played.
Tenby were good value for their win and created enough opportunities to score more. Manager Mike Lewis says his young team are working hard and noticing the fruits of their labour.
"We had three 16-year-olds playing for us on Saturday and one of them, Callum Proctor, has been our most consistent player to date. We've got a good mixture of youth and experience and we're all working hard to play consistent football and so far it seems to be working."
Tenby were the stronger team from the off and went into the break 4-0 up, with goals from Sam Christopher, Tom Merion, Rob Whitfield and James Buckle.
Christopher scored the fifth early in the second, while Merion grabbed a further two to complete a good game for him and his team.
Narberth Seconds won a close one at home against their counterparts from Merlins Bridge, the 4-3 scoreline reflecting a close and exciting game.
A Jason Jones free-kick gave Narberth the initiative, before the Bridge equalised to go in 1-1 at the break.
The home team started brightly in the second, before the visitors were awarded two penalties in succession. The first for a foul, the second from handball and needless to say the Wizards profited as a result.
Narberth were now on the back foot, but Huw Vaughan reduced the deficit with about 20 minutes to go, before Peter Phillips, playing his first game for five years or so, drew the teams level and then with seven minutes to go, Tony Evans scored to give the Bluebirds a remarkable and confidence-boosting win.
St. Clears continued their excellent start to life in Division Three with a workmanlike 2-0 win over Hakin United's second team. The score doesn't really reflect St. Clears' control of the game, although they were grateful when Mr Consistent, Eddie Wiggins grabbed the second in the second half to give them breathing space following Steve Trivett's first half strike.
"We played really well," said Jason Owens. "We could have gone 3-0 up in the first and were glad when Eddie scored when he did. It steadied us a little as Hakin are a side that can always come back and bite you. Thankfully they didn't as we held out."
The derby game between St. Florence and Lawrenny finished with the honours going to the home side, despite it being a closely contested game.
The homesters were particularly dangerous on the break and capitalised on this with two breakaway goals, with Colin Batley profiting twice to put them 2-0 up at the break.
Tom Lewis's composed finish gave Lawrenny hope, but they failed to take their chances and the home team took the points.
Kilgetty's miserable start to life in Division Four continues after they lost 5-1 away at Goodwick United, while the game between Saundersfoot Sports and Carew Seconds ended in a 1-1 draw.
"It was a typical derby, with lots of hustle and bustle and everyone getting stuck in," said Carew manager, Barry Evans.
"It was a fair result really. We went ahead through Huw Evans in the first and then they came back to draw with 10 minutes or so to go when Carl Wainwright scored. It was a good game; it's just a shame a former Carew player had to grab the equaliser!"
In Division Five, Lawrenny Seconds beat Letterston 3-1, with Kelvin George, Jon Beff and Ian Jenkins getting the goals, while St. Clears Seconds drew 3-3 away at Pembroke Boro, the goals for the Saints coming from Simon Bancroft, Sam Mills and Lloyd Evans.
Meanwhile, Pendine Seconds may have lost again following their 5-3 home defeat against Hubberston, but it was a much-improved performance, even though regular goalkeeper Benno was forced to have stitches in his head and was replaced by Jamie Rugg, thus disturbing the balance of the side. The goals for the Seagulls were scored by Teged Edwards and Wesley Reynolds, who finished with a brace.
