The two sides were separated by just one goal, with Locks Heath finding the breakthrough in the 78th minute to secure their place in the next round.

Despite the result, Overton will have little time to dwell on the cup exit, with another game coming up quickly. The first team return to Bridge Street on Wednesday evening when they host Broughton, looking to get back to winning ways.

There was considerably more to celebrate for Overton’s reserves, who made an outstanding start to their season with an emphatic 11-1 victory over Liphook United Under-23s.

Overton were in prolific scoring form, with Cam Harper, Scott Winterbourne and Sam Mosdell all finding the net. Lyndon Tyson added two goals, while Louis McCann enjoyed an extraordinary afternoon in front of goal, scoring six times.

The result gives the reserves an early boost as they continue their campaign in the Mike Smith Group Stage.

They are back in action next Saturday when they travel to face Rushmoor Saints Under-23s, looking to build on their impressive opening result.

For the first team, attention now turns firmly to Wednesday night and the visit of Broughton to Bridge Street, with Overton looking to respond quickly after their narrow cup defeat.

Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council is introducing the changes from Monday 12 October, with the aim of increasing recycling and reducing the amount of waste sent to landfill or other forms of disposal. The changes are also intended to help the borough meet mandatory waste reduction targets set by the government.

Under those targets, the borough’s recycling rate needs to more than double, from around 30% to 65% by 2035. The amount of rubbish thrown away each year must also be cut by half by 2042.

From October, rubbish bins will be collected every two weeks, alternating with recycling collections. Food waste caddies will continue to be collected every week, while glass will remain on a fortnightly collection.

Personalised bin collection calendars are now being sent to households, with envelopes containing printed leaflets and cut-out-and-keep calendars expected to begin arriving on residents’ doormats from the end of this week.

The calendars have been produced specifically for individual properties and will show collection dates for all waste and recycling containers over the coming months. They will also include temporary changes to collections over the Christmas and New Year period, when schedules are adjusted to give crews time to catch up following the festive break.

Residents will also be able to check their collection dates online through the council’s bin collection service, which can be used once the printed calendar has run out.

The council says more than 40% of the material currently found in household waste bins could be recycled using the services already available across the borough.

Residents are being encouraged to make the most of recycling collections and reduce the amount they put into their rubbish bins. The council has refreshed its waste and recycling webpages and sent households a recycling leaflet earlier this year, with further advice included in the new collection calendars.

Information is also available about recycling a wider range of household items at the borough’s recycling sites, along with advice on reducing everyday household waste.

Cllr Laura James, Cabinet Member for Residents’ Services and Housing, said residents should keep their calendars somewhere safe so they are ready for the changes on 12 October.

She said the calendars would make it clear if a household’s collection day was changing and when bins should be put out, while also providing useful information about what can be recycled.

Residents looking for further information about the changes, recycling more from home, disposing of household items, or requesting an extra or replacement bin can visit the council’s waste and recycling information.

United found themselves 1-0 down at half-time and, despite their efforts after the break, were unable to find the breakthrough needed to get themselves back into the contest.

The result leaves Overton 12th in the Hampshire Premier League Senior Division, with seven points from their opening six matches. United have recorded two wins and a draw alongside three defeats so far this season, leaving them looking to build some consistency as the campaign continues.

There is little time to dwell on the result, with United now turning their attention to the Premier League Cup.

Locks Heath are the visitors to Bridge Street on Saturday, with kick-off at 3pm as Overton look to bounce back and make progress in the cup.

The event takes place on Saturday 12 and Sunday 13 September, with guided tours starting from the gazebo outside the community centre’s main entrance.

There will also be a series of talks across the weekend.

Saturday’s talks begin at 2pm with The Life of These Walls, looking at the history of the Community Centre and the people who have used it over the years. At 3.30pm, Jane Austen’s Early Hampshire Life will explore Austen’s connections with Hampshire.

On Sunday, Overton in Jane Austen’s Time will be presented in two parts. The first, at 12 noon, will look at population, homes, business and literacy. The second, at 3.30pm, will explore the church, travel, poverty, illness, crime and punishment, and military service.

The Life of These Walls will also be repeated at 2pm on Sunday.

There will be plenty for younger visitors too. The playroom will feature a history display about the Community Centre, alongside a nature table, colouring and craft activities.

In the playground, activities will take place at various times throughout both days, including singing games, hopscotch, skipping and traditional wooden games.

The Heritage Open Days programme offers an opportunity to discover more about Overton’s history, while exploring the community centre and hearing stories about the people and events connected with the village.

The course will run every Thursday evening at the Community Centre in Overton, starting on Thursday 24 September at 7.30pm.

Alpha is a series of sessions exploring the Christian faith. Each session looks at a different question around faith and is designed to encourage conversation and discussion.

The course is run all around the world, with everyone welcome to attend. Alpha courses take place in a wide range of settings, including online, cafés, churches, universities and homes.

While no two Alpha courses are exactly the same, they generally share three key elements: hospitality, a talk on video and good conversation.

LifeSpring Community Church says it has seen many people attend Alpha and discover a different sense of hope.

Anyone interested in taking part can register their interest through the LifeSpring Community Church website.

The government announced on Monday that its decision, made in March, had been withdrawn following legal advice. It says this will allow it to review the evidence and consider how the proposals fit with its new ambitions and priorities.

Cllr Paul Harvey described the move as “deeply disappointing”, saying councils and communities had spent months preparing for major changes.

He said the announcement had come without warning and that the council would now seek answers about what it means for the future of local government in Hampshire.

Cllr Harvey also defended the proposed North Hampshire council, saying it would be large enough to remain financially strong while staying closely connected to local communities.

He said the council would continue to oppose any proposal for a larger authority covering more of Hampshire, while focusing on protecting services for residents amid ongoing financial pressures facing Hampshire County Council.

Montserrat Events & Festivals Limited confirmed the cancellation of the two-day festival, which had been scheduled for Saturday 12 and Sunday 13 September.

In a statement, the company’s directors said they had taken the decision with “profound sadness”.

The cancellation comes just days before thousands of visitors were expected to head to Thruxton for a weekend celebrating aviation.

As a consequence of the cancellation, Montserrat Events & Festivals Limited said steps are now being taken to place the business into liquidation. The directors are also seeking independent legal and insolvency advice.

Anyone who has already purchased tickets is being advised to contact their debit or credit card provider directly to discuss what options may be available to recover their payment.

The company said suppliers and other stakeholders would also be contacted with further information about the process, including details of any relevant claims or enquiries.

The Hampshire Air Festival had been due to bring a packed programme of aviation activity to Thruxton Aerodrome on Saturday and Sunday, but the event will now not go ahead.

Montserrat Events & Festivals Limited concluded its statement by thanking those who had supported the festival.

The company said: “We are grateful to everyone who has supported the event.”

There was a fantastic mix of players taking part, with several younger members competing alongside more seasoned players. The event also saw one member take part in their first ever competition, making for a particularly special day on the course.

The Net Strokeplay competition went right down to the wire, with four players putting in impressive performances.

Toby Stupples matched his handicap with a net score of 54, while Graham Bond went one better with a net 53. Mike Rutherford came agonisingly close with a net 51, but the bragging rights ultimately went to Gary Bragg, who produced an outstanding net 50, finishing four shots under his handicap.

The Gross Strokeplay competition was equally competitive, with Gary Bragg recording a 66 and Toby Stupples a 65.

However, it was Graham Bond who once again came out on top. With a superb gross score of 61, just seven over par for the course, Bond successfully defended his title to become back-to-back Town Meadow Club Champion.

There were also a number of other highlights throughout the competition.

Richard Spooner took the nearest-the-pin prize on the first hole, while Paul Cooper produced arguably the shot of the day to win the ‘Nearest in 2 Shots’ competition on the ninth.

Cooper’s birdie came courtesy of an incredible hole-out from around 70 yards after a wayward tee shot, making for a spectacular second shot and a memorable moment.

The morning was rounded off with the raffle, with Paul Tarsey taking home the cash prize. Although there were a few raised eyebrows after he suspiciously managed to pull his own winning ticket!

Congratulations to all 22 members who took part, and especially to Gary Bragg and back-to-back champion Graham Bond on their fantastic performances.

The race attracted runners of all ages and abilities, with a strong field battling it out for the top spots.

Joshua Price of Vectis Academy Race Team was the first man across the finish line, completing the five-mile course in an impressive 25 minutes and 46 seconds, at a pace of 5:09 per mile.

He was followed by Matthew Port of Winchester RC, who finished just six seconds behind in 25:52.

Third place went to Richard Lovejoy of Aldershot Farnham & District, recording a time of 26:28.

In the women’s race, Emma Stevens of Aldershot Farnham & District was the first woman home, finishing in 30:39. She placed 31st overall.

Emma Jolley of City of Portsmouth AC was second woman in 31:39, while Helen Herman-Bonaer of Totton RC finished third in 31:42.

There was also success for the home club, Overton Harriers.

The first Overton Harriers man home was 19-year-old Edward Vallis, who finished 25th overall and recorded a time of 29:54.

The first Overton Harriers woman was 15-year-old Samara Martin, who crossed the line in 41:40, finishing 256th overall.

With 475 runners taking part, the Overton 5 once again provided a fantastic showcase for local running, bringing together competitive athletes, club runners and participants from across the region.

Congratulations to everyone who took part in this year’s race.

In a tightly contested encounter, Overton produced a strong team performance, with every player contributing as they held the top side to a 0–0 draw.

With every point counting in the league, the result gives Overton plenty of encouragement as they continue their campaign.

There is little time to rest, however, with a local derby coming up on Wednesday evening. Hook make the trip to Bridge Street for a floodlit clash, with kick-off at 7.45pm.

Overton United will be hoping for another strong turnout from the home support as they look to build on yesterday’s impressive result.
