Fully charged Slazenger settled quickly into their fluent attacking style at Scarborough to returning confortable 2-1 victors.
Will Buckley’s tremendous strike opened Slazenger’s account in this Pritt Roller Yorkshire League Division 2 fixture.
Midfielder Nick Webb plucked the ball out of the air for the second off Andy Forman’s cross.
The second goal however, had a downside to it. Slazenger sat back on their two-goal cushion and Scarborough hit back in the second half.
Their pressure paid off with a goal but the goal-keeping efforts of man of the match Dave Hellam and the rest of the back four proved too good for the East coast side.
