The newly formed ADL team had their first ever league match on Saturday and faced Wingrave Development, a team that had beaten them in a pre-season friendly.
New management team of Greg Panter and Kevin Borrett named their squad to start the match with all players either 17 or 18 years old in a very young line up.
There were few chances in the early exchanges and both teams couldn't find the opening goal.
38 minutes saw Wingrave take the lead, but a few minutes later, Chris Booth was on, collected a ball from Kai, and managed to level the score to make it all square at half time.
The lads turned the match around with more focus on possession and movement off the ball. The defenders, led by Conor, with Rohan, Hohlden and Noah all put in great performances to hold the score level.
Wingrave scored on 65 minutes to take the lead but the Warriors heads didn't drop and they fought their way back into the match.
Durjan went up for a corner and managed to get on the end of a cross by Dylan and levelled up once again.
Harley Borrett then popped up with the winner with 15 minutes to go for a superb win.
