The Jaguars continued their impressive start to the new season with a commanding performance against New Ash Green Leopards in their third game of the campaign. The match, played under clear skies, saw the Jaguars explode out of the blocks with a blistering high press that left the Leopards stunned.

Within the opening five minutes, the Jaguars raced into a two-goal lead, with Mason Startup and Maison Doyle finding the back of the net. The early advantage could have been under threat as the Leopards began to grow into the game, enjoying more possession and applying pressure. However, Jaguars goalkeeper Henry Manwaring produced two moments of brilliance to deny the visitors.

First, a sensational fingertip save kept the scoreline intact, followed just minutes later by a dramatic penalty save that left the crowd in awe. Manwaring's heroics not only ensured the Jaguars’ lead remained intact but also earned him the Supporters' Player of the Match award.

Buoyed by their goalkeeper’s performance, the Jaguars pressed on, adding three more goals before halftime. Doyle completed his brace, as did Startup, while Ernie Simmons pounced on a goalkeeper's error to cleverly slot home the fifth.

The Leopards came out fighting in the second half, determined to mount a comeback. Despite pulling two goals back, they were thwarted by a resolute Jaguars defence led by Charlie Staples, whose standout performance earned him the Coaches' Player of the Match award. Staples’ composure and leadership at the back were crucial in maintaining the Jaguars’ control of the game.

With this emphatic performance, the Jaguars remain a force to be reckoned with in the early stages of the season. Fans will undoubtedly look forward to their next outing, hoping the team can continue their winning streak.
