BEMERTON Heath Harlequins boss Steve Slade had three good reasons to be cheerful on Saturday evening.
High-riding Harlequins' impressive 3-0 victory at Lymington & New Milton extended their 100 per cent record to three games and Slade's 16-year-old son, Jack, clambered off the subs' bench to score his first goal for the club.
"Jack did come off the bench a couple of times last season but today was his first goal for the club and naturally I'm very proud," smiled Slade senior.
"We did play really well and we were solid throughout the game, although I thought that 3-0 flattered us a bit. We have a 100 per cent record and you can't argue with that," he added.
Jamie Boswell's slide-rule through-ball released Stu Findlay to notch Bemerton's opener after 25 minutes before Findlay returned the complement on 50 minutes by flicking on Adam Nash's free kick for Boswell to bag a second.
Ian Chalk and Findlay then combined well down the right for Slade to complete the scoring after 70 minutes.
