Pennine League division four champions-elect Selby Warriors aim to erase their Andrew Bennett Memorial Trophy heartache and enjoy a promotion party at home to Drighlington ‘A’ on Saturday. Victory over bottom club Hollinwood last night would have clinched the club’s first-ever title, as they now seek a trophy double – they have also reached the York & District Cup final – after the treble chance evaded them.
Tries from Gavyn Lightowler, Ben Pearson, Wayne Fennell and Michael Barnaby almost secured a Trophy semi-final upset at division two Dodworth – but a last-minute conversion attempt fell just short, leaving the final score at 17-16.
New Earswick ‘A’ host lowly Kings Cross Park ‘A’ as they continue their promotion push.
