National League South Round-Up: All Of Today's Action

By Tom Scott

Goals was the dish of the day in the National League South - and plenty of them!

Hemel Hempstead kicked off things in style under Sammy Moore with an emphatic 4-1 win over Hungerford Town.

Chelmsford City despatched Hampton & Richmond Borough by the same scoreline - Tom Wraight's double helping them on their way.

It was the perfect start and more for Weymouth.

Not many fancied the Terras before the season started but a late Ben Thomson double at Maidstone turned heads.

A two-minute double from Bath City earned them all three points against Braintree Town.

The Romans raced out of the blocks after the break with Harvey Smith and Ross Stearn making the most of it.

Jake Robinson bagged four goals on the opening day of last season and while the Billericay forward got just the one today, that's all they needed to edge past Eastbourne Borough.

Matthew Briggs' last-gasp strike saw Dorking kick-off their campaign in style at Slough Town.

It was goalless between St Albans City and Chippenham Town while it was goals galore as Wealdstone stuck four past Dartford.

Dulwich Hamlet survived a late scare against Tonbridge Angels to take the spoils.

Havant & Waterlooville looked to be on their way after Roarie Deacon's opener - Welling's Adam Coombes had other ideas.

Concord Rangers are keen to show they can push again.

Joel Nouble opened the scoring as the Beachboys put three without reply past Oxford City.
