Queensbury’s ambition to return to the Pennine League Premier Division at the first attempt will come to a head on Saturday when they tackle fellow contenders Ackworth Jaguars at Hill Top.

Bury are in fourth spot with games in hand against the Jaguars, who are one place above them, while Clayton face a tough outing against runaway Division One leaders Slaithwaite Saracens at Lidget Green, who beat them 68-0 earlier in the season.

Birkenshaw must overcome their surprise Bradford Cup defeat at the hands of Odsal Sedbergh if they want to prevent basement visitors Wyke from registering their first win.

West Bowling A have talisman Phil Chapple back in the pack when they seek to atone for the hefty 58-18 away thumping when Emley Moor arrive at Emsleys Rec.

Wibsey Warriors will go top of Division Two if they come away from Brighouse Rangers with the spoils.

The Warriors, who have not had their colours lowered so far, also have three games in hand on their main rivals.

Bank Top Harriers journey to Newsome and Odsal Sedbergh start favourites against Ovenden A at Odsal Rec.
