Whitsunday United saw most teams record a win or a draw at worst, starting off with the U14's, who led the way with both teams still undefeated two thirds through the season.
The top-of-the-table Premier side overcame a fast-starting Lions on the weekend to eventually roll over them, winning 4-1.
Man of the Match Reef Peel put in a huge attacking effort, scoring two goals.
The U14 Div1 side had a 5-1 win over Magpies, with Jacob Godden the outstanding performer with three goals and involvement in every play.
The U16's frustrating run continues, despite matching the top of the table and undefeated Lions side across the park.
The home side went down 2-0 as Lions capitalised on a defensive mix up, which led to a converted penalty in the last minute.
The side relied on seven U14 players backing up to fill the bench.
The Whitsunday Women played at home with the Div1 side storming to a strong 2-0 win against Dolphins. Goals to Lucia Bates and Mabel Gudes sealed the win.
Belle Howard took out player of the Match for her strong attacking runs from defence and composure on the ball. The side is now within striking distance of the top four with several games in hand.
The Premier Women had a frustrating game drawing 2-2 against a Rangers side that fought hard the whole game.
The Men’s reserves faced a determined onslaught from the Crusaders which took the visitors to a 4-1 lead, but the local lads rallied and came back to even the score at 4-4.
Nicholas Hansen starred, scoring two, whilst Josh Lowe and Philip Mcallister adding the extras. The draw keeps the side third on the ladder.
The Premier Men continued their winning form, taking a comfortable and impressive 3-0 win against the third placed Crusaders.
In a fast-paced match, the home side was never troubled and treated the crowd to some great football. Jimmy McEvoy-Bowe, an own goal, and Ben Smith the scorers, putting the side in second place with games in hand.
