National places for local canoeists


TWO Ribble Valley canoeists have claimed prestigious places in the national junior canoeing squad, writes Toby Chnpnum. The padtllers, Gemma


Hargreaves and Stuart Brass, were selected to


join the British junior team following their performance at a selection meeting held in North Wales earlier in the year. Both canoeists have


competed for their country before and will be making a real bid for glory when they travel abroad for the testing event, which attracts top paddlers from a whole host of countries, including Italy, Norway,New Zealand and Canada. Usually, both the male


and female team compete on the same river, but this year the two squads will


Tight finish


Clitheroe 177 for nine, Cherry Tree 172 all out


CHERRY Tree needed six nms from the last over to_ clinch victory, but Ian' Wrigglesworth then had the away team’s captain caught behind to settle matters for the Chatburn


Road side. This was an exciting climax


to a game which was fought neck and neck all the way to the finishing line. Batting first, Clitheroe soon


ran into trouble, losing Keith Fawcett when the score was IS. His partner, Neil Ash­ worth, followed some 20 nms later. Clitheroe’s two Austra­ lians, Shaun Daish and Wrigglesworth, settled in and began to pick up the mil-rate. They added 70 before the amateur was adjudged leg before. Within an over his countryman was also back in the pavilion and the search for runs had to begin all over again. This was supervised by Neil


Bolton, who struck the ball hard its the overs declined and picked up a useful score of 31. A total o f 177 was not


enough to be confident but also not too few to be


apprehensive. Even when two Cherry


Tree wickets had fallen for 11 runs, the visitors did not seem inclined to give in. Profes­ sional Neil Bradshaw and Phi­ lip Mercer picked up a useful l>4-run partnership at the required rate. Mercer contin­ ued the good work, with A nd rew H o ld ro y d and together they dominated the proceedings. At this stage, they were up with the run- rate and had wickets in hand. Mercer went for ah excel­


lent 75 when the score was 117, and this opportunity was not lost on the Clitheroe bowl­ ers, particularly Wriggles­ worth and Garth Sutcliffe, who fought a rear-guard action to get back into the game. The wickets began to tumble as Cherry Tree s tail- end tried to tackle Clitheroe’s


professional. In the dying overs, a _\vin


for either team was possible, with Clitheroe just nosing


ahead right at the end. Clitheroe

partnership between Davies and Schofield gave Bihbles- dale the boost they needed to beat Clitheroe in this Division Three derby.


Batting first, Clitheroe’s


batting order gave an incon­ sistent display, with some showing great skill and fight, and others faltering with low scores. West head (SS). Bobin- son (20) and Amin (20) were Clitheroe's main contributors to tile side’s total of 170. The remaining eight batsmen could only muster :’*7 runs between them.


All four Bibblesdale bowl­


ers took wickets, with Burke most destructive, taking four for 45.


Bibblesdale's reply began


well with Spencer (20), Davies (S3) and Scliofield (:>4) all hit­ ting valuable runs. Although the middle order began to fal­ ter. Davies provided the mainstay and helped the side reach the required total with over seven overs to spare.

travel to different countries, with the ladies team competing in France and the men’s team in Finland. The ladies’ team had


their competition switched to France following a request from the British Canoe Union, who adjudged that the river


the event was being held on was just too dangerous. In fact, the BCU,


although resigned to the fact the the pre-world championships will be held in Finland, are still trying to switch next year’s full world championships from the Scandinavian country.


The infamous river is


actually impassable in places and the BCU regard it as too dangerous for junior competitors. Whatever the outcome,


both canoeists will be going for glory in the hope that they can claim top places and stake their claim for a place in the national squad in 1992.


Broken arm may end championship dream


THE Burgess brothers have crashed out of the British Formula Two Sidecar Championships following a had accident at Scarborough. After finishing a slightly


disappointing 12th the pre­ vious week at Thruxton, the Clitheroe pairing of driver Norman (far left) and his passenger David were going all out for a good performance in Yorkshire. Tike the Monaco Grand


I’rix circuit, Scarborough is extremely tight and so a good grid position is important as there are few opportunities to overtake other competitors. While on a qualifying


time lap, the throttle of their 3f>0cc Formula Two Yamaha stuck open. “We were coming out of


a bend and went straight into the banking,” said David. “ I was catapulted through the fence while Norman stayed with the hike,” said David. The pair ploughed into a


group of unsuspecting spectators, breaking a watching lady’ s leg, while Norman suffered a broken


arm. Both were taken to the


track’s medical centre. Norman was later trans­ ferred to Scarborough General Hospital and then went on to Blackburn Royal Infirmary where the arm was set. It now means at least


six weeks out of action for the pair as they wait for Norman’s injury to heal, but it gives them time to repair the bike. More


importantly, it means that they will miss two rounds of competition. “ The accident left us


with bruised pride, arms and legs, but we hope to he back as soon as we pos­ sibly can,” said David.


Chatburn pip it


with little chaffing


Chatburn 170 for nine, Airedale 161 all out


BATTING first, Chatburn made a respectable 170 off their 45 overs. T o p - s c o r e r was Ken Barker, with 3*1, although Bob


Wright, Joe Woodworth, Bod Booth and Andy Drakeford all had scores in the 20s. When Airedale batted,


Chatburn had to work hard for their wickets and the game came to an exciting cli­ max. With one over left, Aire­ dale needed 10 to win, with the last pair at the wicket. Three runs were added, but Hod Booth bowled the last man to give Chatburn a six- run victory. Booth had stuck to his tasli to take five for 71 from 20.3 overs. Chatburn: K. Barker 3*1, A.

Anniversary


THE 25th anniversary of the founding of Pendlc Ski Club was celebrated by 150 mem­ bers and guests last week. The chief guests were the


Mayor and Mayoress of the Kibble Valley, Coun. Howel and Miss Helen Jones, Mr Frank Magregor, president of the English Ski Council and


his wife Louise. Coun. Jones said Grace


before the meal and later in the evening drew the tickets for the two winners of a week­ end in Scotland next year. Each ticket represented a minimum of five hours volun­ tary work, helping the club at weekends during the winter. The club’s vice-chairman,


Mr Brian Gee, gave a potted review of some high points in the history of the club. Mr Frank Magregor presented medals and trophies to the first three in each event of the slalom races held three weeks earlier. This was followed by a good evening’s dancing until the small hours. For many of those present,


there had been an early start on Sunday morning as the first English Ski Council race liad been held on Pendle Ski Slope. Over lOOskiers from all over England, Wales and Northern Ireland took part. Those from the south were not a little put out finding visibility less than 15 metres, so not only was the bottom, but the greater part of the slope, invisible. Assurances that it would soon clear were met with deep scepticism, but long before the nice started at 10-30 a.m., the view across the valley had returned to


normal. Mr Magregor was the race


referee and Mrs Joan Knight, of Clitheroe, was the race convenor. A t the end o f racing,


English squail racer Chris­ topher Blagen (19), presented the prizes, accompanied by his sister Lisa and Helen Keagan, who are both former members of the girls’ English racing squad, and Paul Anthony Cairns, a member o f the English Schools’ squad. In a race of this very high


s ta n d a rd , P e n d le did e x trem e ly w e l l. Cheryl Wood,of Nelson, was first in the girls’ race, while Jackie Webb came fifth in only her second national race. In the boys’ competition,


brothers Nat and Tim Cham­ bers came second and 10th respectively. Stephen Webb was 13th. Dan Norton 17th and Paul Hothesall 35th. In the mixed race, Eleanor


Huddleston came fourth in the girls’ section. This was a timed slalom on


two separate courses, skied one in the morning and the other in the afternoon. The two t im e s w e re added together to give the results.


LANCASHIRE tennis play­ ers of all standards begin qualifying for the final stages of the Volkswagen Nationals when the Blackburn Northern Tennis Club stages the county qualifier from June 15th.


Net stars Beginners, intermediates,


club plavers and Lancashire’s best will all find something to play for at the event, with separate events for men and women, and no fewer than 14


titles at stake. Winners from the Black­


burn Northern event will then progress to the regional finals held at Telford, where victory


will take them to the Volks­ wagen Nationals, again at Telford, which are once again t e l e v i s e d b v B B C Grandstand.

Yates returns


Bead 123 for nine. Bihhlesdale Wanderers 126 for seven


SATURDAY saw the return of professional Gary Yates to the Bibblesdale side as Lanca­ shire were without a game last weekend. It also seemed to mark a


change of fortune as they won the toss and elected to put Bead in. Ian Britcliffe made the breakthrough in the first over when Yates took a fine one-handed catch at slip.


Bibblesdale kept their field­


ing and bowling tight, with David Howard particularly impressive. Yates was intro­ duced into the attack and bowled seven consecutive maidens while taking the wicket of Stephen Bushton. Howard then took the next


four wickets as Bead strug­ gled to gain any momentum, losing wickets at regular intervals. Howard finished with four for 50 from 17 overs and Yates had three for 10 from 17. With the wicket giving


plentv of encouragement to the bowlers, it was never


going to he an easy win for Wanderers and. at one stage, they were 44 for five, with Yates undefeated on 40. Martin Greenhalgh then


joined his professional and showed tremendous applica­ tion. proving the perfect foil, he and Yates added 51 before the professional went for a sparkling 75. including three


(is and 12 4s. When Leach fo l low ed


shortly after. Bibblesdale were 105 for seven, and Bead must have thought they were in with a chance. But Philip Hall joined Greenhalgh to see Wanderers to victory with seven overs to spare.


TIME ran out for Padiham in Sunday’s Whit­ bread Ribblesdale League derby match against Read at the Arbories. The visitors failed to bowl their full 45 overs in


Bead


the statutory limit of 2% hours, and Padiham were 16 runs short of their tar­ get after looking well on


course for victory. The game was decided on run rate, with Bead taking


the five points by 3.60 runs an over to Padiham’s 3.50. With professional Mark


Aspin being the only Bead bowler to have anything like a long run up. it was some sur­ prise that Bead could only manage -12 overs. Winning the toss and elect­


ing to bat. Bead lost Austra­ lian amateur Jason Moore for two in the sixth over, but skipper Steve Bushton and Gary O’Connor took the score along nicely, but on 20 O’Con­ nor was beaten by Bolton and Aspin managed only three before being caught behind by Neil Holden.


' But David Parsons held the innings together with a splen­ did 54 off 79 balls, and the Bead cause was also helped by no fewer than 10 wides being given — Bob Ormerod and Andy Wyver being the main culprits. In fact with 29, Mr Extras


had the second highest score of the innings. Padiham found runs hard to


come by in the early overs, with Aspin bowling three suc­ cessive maidens and claiming the wicket of Alistair Woods in the process and Te r ry Clegg conceding only two sin­ gles at the other end. Clegg, having conceded


only five inns in his first six overs, had Wyver caught


behind by Peter Grainger for 12, and a smart bit of fielding work by Patrick Ford had


Bolton nm out for five. But Marcus Gee. making


the most of his promotion up the order, and Ian Whitehead did an excellent job. Young Gee was bowled by


Philip Hanson for 32, and after Paul Hargreaves went the same way and Graeme Devon fell Ibw to Frank Newby. Bead looked home and dry with Padiham strug­ gling on 71 for six. But Whitehead and Stephen

injured Roger Watson, P r ie s t turned in an inspired performance, but could not carry an under- strength Whalley side to


‘ victory. Although they lost John


Kcarsley with only six on the board. Priest and captain John Wharton put on a mag­ nificent stand of 190 for the


second wicket. Priest’s cen­ tury came off 128 balls and his only scare came when he charged down the wicket to his opposite number Chris Killen and was bowled. How­


ever, it was from a ninball and he regained his ground tafort* he could l)e run-out. It was a masterful |>erfor-


ninnce from the man who toured England with his coun­ try last year, and it was one that should have carried his side to victory. He was well supported by Wharton, who


finished with 69. However, what could have


cost Whalley the match was Barnoldswiek’s slow over rate. As the villagers were preparing for a final onslaught m tne last couple of overs, the umpires intervened as there


was not enough time to fit them in. And it proved vital as Bar- noldswick went on to triumph with only three balls to spare. Andy Smith hit a fine 52


before falling to Priest, but it was an Australian and not a New Zealander who turned the match. Overseas amateur lien Hackney, who was very strong off his legs, won the

Brian Brown absent, Whalley had only three recognised Imwlers in Priest. Tony Nut- tall and Lee Kearslev. But it was Lee’s father John who kept the game alive, conced­ ing only 39 runs from his nine overs, and he was unlucky only to pick up one wicket. Although this was their
