LYMINGTON Town were presented with the Division 2 Championship trophy by SWL referees' secretary Dennis Challis at their Southampton Road home on Saturday and they celebrated with a 7-0 annihilation of Aldermaston.
Triumphant Town toasted winning doubles from Phil Stone and Paul Sims plus solos by Danny Veal, Charlie Balfe and a first-ever strike from defender Jason Stride - the last of the club's 121 league goals this season.
Second-placed Poole Town have scored two more goals than their rivals as well as accumulating 103 points, and they signed off their campaign with a 6-1 success at Amesbury.
Senior statesman Taffy Richardson scored twice as did 16-year-old David Sturgess, soloists Gary Funnell and Peter Goodbody completing their sextet.
Locks Heath's 2-0 victory at Shaftesbury sees them take third spot.
A Darren Clarke strike couldn't stave off a 3-1 home defeat for second-bottom Fawley, who must now hope that two Division 3 clubs can't achieve the necessary grading criteria for promotion.
Bishop's Waltham Town are safe despite two-goal Robbie Morant and Tom Clifford giving Blackfield & Langley a 3-0 away win over the beleaguered Bishops.
