Rugby Union: It's half-term for schools and many rugby union first teams have decided to have a week off as well.

Bradford and Bingley, Keighley, Bradford Salem and Ilkley are all putting their feet up tomorrow.

Bees coach Colin Hay said: "A few of the lads have niggling injuries, and a rest will give them time to repair."

Martin Whitcombe, who coaches Keighley, said: "We haven't really had time to work on things other than the basics. We should have been playing in a club match at Ripon, but prefer to work on attacking variations and line-out options so that when we play our next league match at home to Goole a week tomorrow we will have more strings to our bow."

The highlights at Shay Lane is likely to be the veterans' clash between Salem and Wibsey (1.00).

Jewson National League One leaders Otley rest scrum half Andy Brown - or at least put him on the bench - for their home game against Nottingham. Peter Wright is given his chance there, and David Hall and Steve Rice line-up alongside Duncan Sayers in the front row.

Unchanged Wharfedale are at Preston Grasshoppers, hoping to break the sequence of home victories between the clubs from National Five North in 1994-95 and 1995-96.
