Their nearest rivals Nelson Suburbs also had a win, but with just four games to go, Bays� eight point lead looks likely to be enough.
Mauricio de Oliveira continues to be unstoppable in front of goal and nabbed another double today for Bays.
He scored on either side of halftime and his second half strike was the winner after Stu Bola scored for Woolston Tech from the penalty spot in the first half.
Simon Gatward-Smith scored Nelson�s only goal in their 1-0 win over Christchurch United.
They beat Halswell 1-0 while Western beat Coastal Spirit 2-1.
In the women�s competition, Western beat University 4-1 and Coastal Spirit beat Halswell 3-0. FC Twenty11 beat Woolston Tech by default.
