CRAIG Adams made a perfect start to his time as Swanage Town and Herston FC manager as they progressed to the next round of the Dorset Premier League Cup.

The Swans dominated from the whistle against Sherborne Reserves and opened the scoring after 10 minutes.

Defender Sam Clarke beat the keeper to the ball to head home from five yards out, before the hosts doubled their lead in the 24th minute.

Josh Revenaull-Nuete played through Cody Moore, who squandered his initial chance but set up Ocean Smith for an easy finish.

One minute later it was three, as Revenaull-Nuete had a tap in from Moore’s cross from the byline.

Swans started the second period as they had the first, as Moore’s dangerous cross one minute in unable to find a teammate.

Sherborne saw one of their players sent off after 65 minutes, before Charlie Brassington finished a good move from Swanage to make it four.

Sherborne grabbed a consolation goal in the 76th minute through Alec Thomas, but Swanage cruised to a comfortable win with Moore named man of the match.
