Euan Simpson’s 15-year spell as manager of Leverington Sports Ladies ended on a high after a handsome cup victory.

Simpson with fellow coach and wife Rachael stepped down from the club after Leverington’s 6-1 triumph over Waterbeach Colts Ladies in the Cambs Junior Invitation Cup on Sunday.

Writing on Twitter, Simpson said: “The past 15 years have been an absolute blast, but it's time for family to come first.

“Our thanks to everyone who has helped us over the years.”

Amy Newell scored either side of a Waterbeach penalty to give Leverington a half-time lead in their second round tie.

Chelsea King, Kayleigh Gray and Katie Garner struck before Newell sealed her hat-trick.
