AFTER beating Newton Hall 28-19, Clitheroe Dol phins can now look forward to competition in Divi sion One of the Subsidiary League next season. The team, clinched promotion from Division Two

Clitheroe’s play improved a great deal and even tually their hard work was rewarded when centre forward Julie O’Brien con nected with a free-kick to grab the equaliser. In the final minutes of

The Leigh forwards collapsed the scrum — an infringement which should have earned Clitheroe a penalty try — but the referee had other ideas and, after spotting that the Leigh three quar te rs had been offside, awarded Clitheroe a pen alty in front of the posts. Malcolm Heanan kicked
the goal and Clithcroe led by three points, when it should really have bee'n, six.

The referee awarded the score only to reverse his decision when a Leigh player claimed
