A clean sweep for the ladies with all four teams victorious. We have come to expect this from the ladies 1s who have a 100% record across all competitions this season and are strong candidates for promotion. The ladies 2s went off bright and early to Harrogate and came back with the 3 points with a closely fought 3-2 win. They are now starting to get the bit of luck that seemed to have deserted Read more…
A mixed bag of results this weekend with the weather making an intervention along the way too. The ladies 1s and Mens 3s suffered the same fate as a waterlogged pitch in Huddersfield put paid to any competitive action on the pitch and consigned the teams to a rearranged Sunday match in the New Year in all probability.

A comfortable 3-0 victory, not a game to be remembered other than the tenth league victory of the season and the seventh clean Read more…
