On Sunday, it is the Bradford Team Championship at Bradford Golf Club, and organisers will be hoping for better weather than last year when the event was washed out.
Meanwhile, Shipley duo Danny Rowley (1.10pm tee-off time) and Will Whiteoak (1.30pm) have entered the English Men's Amateur Championship on Monday at Alwoodley and Pannal, alongside Ilkley's Jack Lampkin (3.10pm). The local trio will all be in action first at Pannal.
