Spencer back on top with SEMLA Senior Flags win

Spencer produced a dominant performance to defeat Camden 13-6 and return the SEMLA Senior Flags to the club for a 10th time.

The Earlsfield side raced into an early lead, stretching their advantage to 7-1 at one stage, and despite Camden bringing it back to 9-4 at the half, the result was never really in doubt as they sealed a third success in four years.

The first Senior final not featuring Spencer against last year’s winners Hampstead for the first time since 2017, Spencer made amends for last year’s disappointment in emphatic style to complete an all-conquering unbeaten season.

It was an already historic day for Camden in making their first ever Senior Flags final, who had also seen their 2s side already claim success in winning the Minor Flags.

However, it wasn’t to be as Spencer displayed their strength, as they have done all season, to secure a fairly comfortable win despite Camden continuing to compete right through to the final whistle.

Earlier in the day, Camden 2s were able to celebrate a win, taking a thrilling Minor Flags final 9-8 against Leicester City.

Despite trailing for most of the match, the Capybaras were able to turn it on it the final quarter and made it matter when it counted, going ahead with around just a minute to play and seeing it out to take the victory.

Then in the Intermediate Flags Final, Walcountians signed off their unbeaten treble winning season in style to defeat Bristol Bombers 16-11.

The Counts only led by one at the half, taking a 7-6 advantage into the break, but a storming third quarter saw them move 13-8 in front and they never relinquished that advantage to round off the perfect season.
