Dulwich Hamlet are fifth in National League South after a 2-2 home draw with Concord Rangers.

Both sides have made impressive starts to the campaign and a crowd of 1,521 at Champion Hill saw Billy Roast and Joel Nouble strike as the Beach Boys got off to a flying start.

Hamlet crucially pulled a goal back before the break. Summer signing Danny Mills opened his account for Gavin Rose’s side as he headed in Jeffrey Monakana’s cross.

Mills hit the bar with a header early in the second half while on-loan Charlton goalkeeper Ashley Maynard-Brewer tipped a Decarrey Sheriff shot on to his post to prevent the score moving to 3-1.

Aaron Barnes claimed the assist for the 66th-minute leveller, the former Charlton full-back’s cross headed into the bottom right corner by Mills, who was only denied his hat-trick by a goal-line clearance.

Ex-Addicks striker Reeco Hackett-Fairchild scored twice for Bromley as they won 3-2 at Hartlepool.
Michael Cheek was also on target for the unbeaten Ravens, who have won three of their opening five National League fixtures.

Tooting & Mitcham kicked off their Isthmian South Central Division campaign with a 1-0 win at Hertford Town – Omari Hibbert with the winner five minutes from time.

Cray Valley PM drew 0-0 at home to Hastings United in the Isthmian South East Division.

Fisher lost 2-1 at Tunbridge Wells in the SCEFL Premier Division – Rob Brown opening the scoring – while Greenwich Borough were thumped 3-0 at Hollands & Blair.

Omar Rowe (two) and Steven Ikpeme netted for Lewisham Borough in a 4-3 win at Snodland in the SCEFL First Division, the final scorer was listed as unknown.
