2023-2024 DFDS Kent Intermediate Challenge Shield Winners: Minster

DFDS Kent Intermediate Challenge Shield Final: Minster 1-1 Halls Athletic (Minster win 3-1 on penalties)

Goalkeeper Magnus Lewis pulled off three penalty shootout saves to help Minster clinch the Kent Intermediate Challenge Shield.

Opponents Halls Athletic had won the KCL Premier Division title but Minster - who finished seventh - were more than a match on the day at Chatham’s Bauvill Stadium.

A stoppage-time equaliser from Minster substitute John Argyrides had sent the Shield final into extra-time after Tom Cecil had put Halls in front.

With no more goals between the league rivals, the tie went to penalties where Lewis was the hero. Triston Jevons and Harry Alexander - with a retaken effort - also scored in the shootout, which ended 3-1 with Dan Adams netting the winner.
