IVYBRIDGE Town were left celebrating at the weekend as their 2-0 win at Bishops Lydeard saw them clinch the South West Peninsula League East title - and promotion to the Western League Premier Division, writes Stuart James.
Ivybridge crowned champions after win

It has been quite the season at Erme Valley with Saturday's win their 24th in 28 games. Ivybridge have lost only twice all season and despite having four games still to play, they have enough points on the board that no one can catch them.

Crediton United look the most likely to finish in second and when they visit Ivybridge on April 20, the presentation of the league trophy will be made.

It took Ivybridge just five minutes to break the deadlock with Bailey Mabin scoring and the win was complete when Chris Wright netted a brilliant free kick.

Ivybridge can now look forward to facing the likes of Saltash United and Torpoint in the Western League next season.
