There's just no stopping the brilliant boys of Basildon's Beech United under-13s.
They won the East Anglian Cup when they triumphed 4-0 over Bedford Park Rangers on Monday in the final at Cambridge.
Three goals from top scorer Raymond Gibbs took them to the success - just a few days after they had clinched the Southend Junior League Championship with two Premier Division triumphs.
They beat Woodham Athletic 5-0 and Tritan Youth 4-1 and are now set for a big date at Roots Hall on May 23 when they take on A Division champs Shoebury Boys in the League Cup final at Roots Hall.
That will be another proud date for two men who have worked so hard for the team's succcess, coach Terry Carlisle and manager Chris Roberts.
(Right) Twin glory -- for Sibar Sports. They beat Southend Collegians 6-2 after extra-time to capture the Section C Southend Charity Competition crown . . . having already clinched the Division One Southend Borough Combination title.
