Free kick expert Braithwaite helps Rimington see off leaders


Rimington . . Stacksteads. . . . . ,C'j-.-A-


.RIMINGTON followed-up- last week’s excellent win over Enfield by beating top-of-the-. table Stacksteads. ■ The home, side started


brightly and O’Neill’s excellent, cross was flieked-on but McCullough could only chest the ball into the arms of a grateful keeper. I t was McCullough’s run


which led to a free-kick being awarded outside the area and dead-bail specialist'Terry Braithwaite curled it over the defensive wall to leave the keep­ er stranded.


/- Rimingtbn doubled their lead .wh'en Dobson and Zulfi caused panic in the defence and Liam Carter followed up to tuck away the chance. Now rampant, the home side.,


had chances to put the game beyond the'table-toppers.. • O’Neill’s fierce cross only just


evaded Dobson’s lunge, McCul­ lough had three or four efforts from long-range and Lawson had a header well saved. -- I t was. the centre-half who


grabbed the third just before half-time with another header from an O’Neill comer to pro­ vide a much-needed cushion for the second half.


-Rimington continued rto dominate after the interval


' until'Stacksteads were reduced to 10 men with about 25 min-


■ utes remaining. , As is"always the case, the i0- ' men worked extremely hard while it must be said Riming­ ton took; their foot off the gas


, and it was no surprise when . their lead was cut, with Ker­ shaw well beaten., The home keeper was then


forced into a smart save to keep the two-goal lead intact as Rimington eventually ran out worthy winners. • The locals travel to Colne on .

Anna in elite group


CLITHEROE youngster Anna Griffiths is one of only two Lancashire athletes to .b e . named in the Under16;Nation-; al rankings.


And the Westholme pupil is , ' ,/ ‘


one of a select group of eight girls to be ranked in three disci­ plines. ' Anna is rated 13th in the


country in the pentathlon, 13th in the shot putt and 22rid in the hurdles. She is delighted overall with


her achievements, although she also feels there is room for improvement. To that end, Anna, who has been in the national rankings


since Under l l level, has enlist­ ed the help of two hew coaches.. Peter Warden, a former


national coach who once trained with Anna’s mother, Frances, will help to bring out the best of her hurdling ability, while she will also travel to Leeds to work with Mike Stay-


’ man on her combined events performances, in the high jump and throws. Anna, who is in the North


West High Performance Squad for hurdles, is in training at the moment in preparation for the season, and after taking a break from the weights, is using Hicks leisure club to prepare.

RibbleValley Borough7 Kelbrook . . . . . . . . . ,0_ FOUR goals from Paul .Chip­ pendale helped Second Divi­ sion Borough to a shock win over top-flight Kelbrook in the East Lancashire League Presi­ dent’s Cup. This was seen as a stern test


guns blazing, but the Ribble Valley defence worked as a unit to keep them at bay, and with Seedall making the save of the game, it proved to be Bor­ ough’s day.


, Borough added a further five goals, with Street and Barnes causing problems for Kelbrook all afternoon. Alan True was man of the


match, while Cook, Berry and Barton completed the scoring.
