VIDEO: Littlehampton Town are champions - first trophy of quadruple bid in bag

Their triumph - courtesy of a 1-0 win over Bexhill at a packed Sportsfield - comes just a month before they play in the FA Vase final at Wembley, and they have a cup final and semi-final to come in the next ten days too.

Talismen Jordan Clark and George Gaskin both scored - just as they did in the Vase semi - as Golds won 2-0 today to see off any chance of Saltdean beating them to top spot. They had already guaranteed promotion to next season's Isthmian south east division courtesy of a top two finish and their points tally.

Littlehampton were only promoted to the premier when the FA decided on a reorganisation of non-league steps five and six a year ago based on points per game that sides had accrued over two unfinished seasons.

Elsewhere Lancing's hopes of staying in the Isthmian premier - and playing Littlehampton next season - are alive and well after they avoided a bottom two finish with a 1-0 win at Whitstable. It means they finish 18th and could still face a relegation play-off, although they may be reprieved by other teams having to drop down.

And Haywards Heath will be away to Herne Bay in the Isthmian south east play-offs on Tuesday night after finishing fourth.. Heath lost their final regular league game 2-1 at home to VCD.

In the Isthmian premier, Worthing scored their 100th goal to beat Brightlingsea 1-0 at a sold-out Woodside Road before being presented with the league trophy.
