SILSDEN ladies face three crucial games as they fight to hang on to their place in the Yorkshire Ladies Premier Division.

They are due to play Grimsby Town, Hull side Preston and Beverley in the league, with fixtures against Leeds United in the County Cup and Doncaster Reserves in the knockout cup.

After last year's promotion run they lost a number of players, but have slowly got to grips with life in the top division.

They recenlty beat White Rose 3-2 with a goal in the last three minutes and are aiming to continue their improved form as the season reaches its climax.
