TENBURY Ladies have secured promotion from Division 1 of the Worcestershire League after a crushing success at Droitwich.
Tenbury made a strong start and Amy Bywater opened the scoring inside the first five minutes. This was followed by a thunderous strike from Jo Turvey who was set up by her sister Rachel Croxton.
More fine play by Tenbury resulted in four more goals before half-time as Bywater, Croxton, Emily Davies and Abi Thomas all hit the target.
Kate George and Thomas further extended the lead during the second period and although Droitwich pulled a goal back, Bywater scored twice more in the closing stages.
The promotion success adds to that of Tenbury's under-16 Badgers team who have won the Herefordshire Badgers League.
Tenbury 2nd can add to the list on Saturday at Bridge Street Sports Centre when a win will see them clinch the Worcestershire Division 3 title.
The club's annual meeting will follow at 4pm.
