MALVERN Town chalked up a 4-1 away win at Tytherington Rocks on a baking hot afternoon in Uhlsport Hellenic Football League Division One West.
Town started off the scoring within the opening minute when Matt Turner slotted home following a neat move.
Rocks got men behind the ball and worked hard as Town looked to add to their lead.
There were chances at either end before Malvern ended the opening period with another goal.
A break from Harry Clark ended with him slotting home to double the advantage.
The hosts reduced the arrears early in the second half through Jordan Dent but Malvern's substitutes came on and made an impact.
Jamie Smith, signed on dual registration from Worcester City, found the net on his debut 10 minutes from time.
Bryan Craven got Town's fourth goal two minutes later as a reward for his hard-working and ever-willing display in the engine room of the team.
