Downham host Gorleston, Heacham entertain Lakenheath and Fakenham travel to Stowmarket




Downham Town became the first West Norfolk side to book their place in the quarter-finals of the Norfolk Senior Cup.

Town were 2-1 winners against Thetford Rovers at the Memorial Field.

Goals from Dylan Kirk and an own goal put the home side 2-0 up, and after missing further chances to increase their advantage, visiting Rovers pulled a goal back.
