Whitstable mounted an impressive comeback to draw 2-2 with second-placed Holmesdale, after falling behind to goals from Lewis Heywood-Oriogun and Don Macauley. Omotunmise Akanni sparked hope for the Oystermen, and Harvey Smith equalized seven minutes from time.

Larkfield & New Hythe earned a 3-1 win at Glebe with two late goals. Josh Jackson’s early lead was nullified by Jamie Philpott’s penalty just before halftime, but Taylor Ibe and Bryan Zepo struck late, lifting the Larks to seventh place.

Tunbridge Wells fell 2-1 at home to Bearsted but remain fifth in the standings. Jesse Darko put Bearsted ahead before halftime, and Samuel Stace added a second, while Jack Walder’s injury-time goal was only a consolation for Wells.

Hollands & Blair suffered a 3-2 defeat at home to Fisher, with Courtney Barrington’s hat-trick sealing the win for the visitors. Devonte West gave Blair the lead, but two quick goals from Barrington turned the match before halftime. Joshua Brooker leveled the score for Blair, only for Barrington to grab the late winner.

Erith & Belvedere were held to a 1-1 draw at Lydd. Tunde Aderonmu gave Erith an early lead, but a second-half penalty from Ronnie Dolan earned the hosts a point.
