Crests Green claimed a 43-18 win over Chelmsford Robins in the Princes Plate after a strong all-round performance.
Shooters were on good form, while defence was tight and the mid-court play was energetic and effective against league rivals.
And Crests Academy celebrated a win over Division Six rivals Cathedral Spitfire in the Nicky Clarke Cup.
Crests had to work hard to get the ball to their shooters, but strong centre court play and good working of the ball into the D saw them create chances to claim a 42-34 victory.
Amy Brown took the player of the match award.
But Dunmow Crest Whites were pipped 34-31 by Division Seven rivals Phoenix Jets in the same competition.
Jets took a narrow lead in a frantic first quarter, played at a rapid pace with errors made by both teams, but Crests had a strong second quarter, dictating the pace of play.
The Crests defence played a strong second half, which turned into a physical battle for possession, but were hampered slightly by advantage not being played on a number of occasions late on.
This allowed the Jets defence the chance to regroup and prevent easier runs at goal and saw Crests come up short, with Sam Clayden their player of the match.
