Yeadon, who finished third in the JCT600 Bradford League Second Division this season, have belatedly been promoted.

The league’s management board made the decision in the light of Manningham Mills being voted out of the league and brings the number of First Division clubs back up to 12.

There is a precedent for this decision as three teams were also promoted at the end of the 2000 season after Yorkshire Bank withdrew from the elite.
