CROFT beat Blackbrook 6-0 in the Warrington and District League’s Premier Division, with Robert Hunt opening the scoring.
He grabbed a second shortly before half time, and his side’s lead was extended further early in the second half when Sam Kirby curled in a free kick at the near post.
Captain Olly Mitchell made it four with a powerful header from a corner, while Michael Stuart and Callum Douglas efforts wrapped up the win.
In Division One, a Ryan Wilde double and a penalty from Scott Robinson helped Grange to a 3-1 win at Cromwell.
It was also a good weekend for Grange reserves, who took the point they required to stay in Division Four thanks to a last-gasp Lloyd Bailey equaliser in a 1-1 draw with Moorfield.
