Peter Shields and Chris Holmes ensured Division 1 side Mersham claimed their second cup win of the season over Premier side Troggs 2-0, while Tim Sims (hat-trick) and Mark Honeysett put Bethersden through to the quarter-finals after beating Crusader 4-0.

Aaron McGuiness grabbed a brace as Hamstreet won 4-1 at Appledore. Tom Wilmshurst and Ross Ketley added the others, with Richard Foster replying.
