A PERSONAL best points ■ tally helped Clitheroe ath- ’ lete Anna Griffiths to-vic- ' tory in her first combined events outing of the season. C om p e t in g ’ 1 in th e


Cheshire Open a t Maccles-V f ield, Anna ensured she ended the season on a high ; with a terrific performance. Anna sta r ted the event with the long jump, aiming


to get within 10% of her season’s best of 4.40m, but e v e ry th in g clicked in to place an d she le a p t to 4.71m for fourth place. A searing run in the hur­


dles saw her win in 12.25 seconds -


four hundredths


of a second quicker th an she has run all season - and move up to first place. A sh o t p u t t th row of


9.24m - 20cms down on her best - kept her in the lead, before a n o th e r seasonal b e s t in th e high jum p - 1.39m - saw her go into the f in al ev en t, th e 800m, needing to beat the leader by over seven seconds. Needing to run a tactical


race, Anna produced the goods, beating her rival by


11 seconds in yet another new se a so n al mark, of 2.39.09 minutes. T h a t e arn ed a p o in ts

WAGGON and Horses contin-; ued their unbeaten run in th e ; Memorial League Fust Divi­ sion with a comfortable 5-1. .win over Stanhill lions on Sun­


day. v , , f 1 In a scrappy first half, with


the pitch little more than a cow field, both sides found it difficult to get the ball under control and play attractive football.' • Possession was lost and


regained in equal amounts until Waggon opened the scor­ ing with a lovely move which ended with Nelson picking out the unmarked Gamer on the penalty spot, who coolly slot­ ted the ball home. Waggon increased their lead


shortly after when the Lions defence gave the ball away to Heslop on the left, who made a powerful run into the box and drilled the ball into the far cor­ ner.


The away side then had


their own spell of pressure, which culminated in them being awarded a penalty which the keeper converted to make


it 2-1. Roaming full back Ward


made sure Waggon were two up a t half-time when he latched on to a loose ball in the area and beat the keeper with a clinical finish. The second half was all


Waggon pressure, and they even swapped Woodhead in goal for centre forward Coulter for the last 15 minutes. The win was sealed with


another superb Heslop goal and a penalty from Clarke, who had to retake due to encroachment. The Waggon look to carry


on this great form on Sunday when they play Wilpshire Bulls Head away, kick-off 10- 30 a.m. Despite the bravest of


efforts, Dog Inn lost 4-2 against Third Division leaders Griffins Head at Norden. The Whalley side lost three players in the hour before the


• kick-off, and an early injury to Paddy Noone saw them play the second half with only 10 men. The Budweiser boys were


already two goals down at this stage, but a classic header from skipper Riccardo Machi reduced the deficit shortly before half-time. The inspirational Italian


added an equaliser on the hour, by which time Dog had come close on several occasions. Unfortunately, two goals


against the run of play saw the Huncoat side secure victory. Dog manager Simon Kerins

Rimington’s late winner


R im in g to n ....................... 2 Oswaldtwislle St Mary’s 1


WITHOUT the services of Penman, Kay, O’Neill, McCullough and Haslam, Rimington played some excellent football and should have won by halftime. Some inspired goalkeeping


and wayward finishing by the home forwards kept the visitors in the game in the f irs t half, with Kershaw almost unemployed in the Rimington goal. Just five minutes after the


interval, the St Mary’s cen­ tre forward proved too strong for Lawson, who had other­ wise given a faultless perfor­ mance, as he fed his counter­ part to round Kershaw and score. I t seemed that Rimington


were on course for one of those days when player-man-


. ager Terry Braithwaite came off the bench with 20 min­ utes remaining. Steve Wharton, who will


be solely missed while he is away a t university, was hacked down inside the area and Braithwaite stepped up to score from the spot with his second touch of the game. Rimington now dominat­


ed. Watkins fed Zulfi but his shot went wide and Carter fired at the near post when Watkins was unmarked. Minutes late r Wharton

Meyler and Astin, plus one from Hutchins, gifted Wolves a comfortable half-time lead. Some impressive flowing

Ormskirk Juniors .............3 Wolves Under 8s Blue........ 0 DESPITE some impressive attempts on goal and the dogged determination of man of the match Andrew Baron, Wolves failed to stave off the Ormskirk attack. After some good defensive


interceptions by Shackleton and several excellent saves from Paige, Ormskirk’s Burchill broke through the locals' resolve to go 1-0 up in the first half. The second half saw


Wolves penned back as Barsby and his fellow defenders coped with wave upon wave of attacks that eventually result­ ed in a second goal from a rebounded defensive clearance. A further couple of solo


efforts from Read failed to help the locals, and a late cruel deflection off the Wolves keep­ er saw the game end 3-0. Gt Harwood Rovers..........8 Wolves Under 9 s ............... 2


■ WOLVES Under 9s had a bap­ tism of fire in their Accrington League game against Great Harwood. The locals started the better

and soon went 4-1 ahead by half-time. The second half was very


much the same, but Clitheroe pulled a consolation goal back when Louis Horrocks lashed the ball in from the edge of the area. • Wolves Under 14s clocked


up two good wins. Firstly they ' demolished Oswaldtwistle Juniors 13-2 and then they saw off Baxenden Villa 5-3. Henri Lawson continued his

tionally unlucky to lose 5-4 at the hands of Birchwood in the first round of the LFA Cup. After trailing 4-1 at half­


time, Readstone recovered in a fine second-half performance to equalise, but as the match was heading to extra time they conceded a goal in the last cou­ ple of minutes. Matt Visser, Tom Clarke, Michael Bailey and man of the match Antho­ ny Taylor all scored as United clawed their way back.

American flavour at Clitheroe GC


By EDWARD LEE


CLITHEROE Golf Club’s annual invitation fourball had an interna­ tional flavour on Sunday - a party of 12 Americans joined forces with some of the home members for the day. Club captain Paul Marlow was


the host, and Bob Aitken used his American connections to make the arrangements. And John Paganelli, visiting


from the Oakhill club in New York s ta te ,. te am ed -u p with Dennis Greenup to compile 42 stableford points and win on a card play-off from home member Tony McGib- bon and Stonyhurst’s M. Gobbi and Dave Hillary who partnered Accrington’s Ian Johnson. David Wilson and his American


guest Jeff Trimboli took the gross prize, with the Port Jefferson golfer clearly delighted and fulsome in his praise of the course, clubhouse and hospitality a t Clitheroe. : M y tto n Fold won th e annual


Presidents and Captains’ match, played between local clubs, atLon- gridge by one point from Whalley. The match, comprising of teams


from Stonyhurst, Longridge. Whal­ ley, Clitheroe and Mytton Fold, is played a t each of the competing clubs on an annual rotating basis. The Mytton Fold team of presi­


dent Frank Hargreaves, captain Richard Greaves, and past captains Jim Hindle and Denis Leaver have thus provided another trophy for the Mytton Fold cabinet, which may shortly have to be increased in size if the club’s winning ways con­ tinue. Mytton Fold members again fig­ ured in the ELPGA Alliance prizes

Thomas Holgate (40) by one point from John Berry and Des Drum­ mond (40) won Division Three by one point from Keith Gill. Card play-offs were needed to


decide the outcome of both divi­ sions of the LGU Medal and pen­ dant a t Clitheroe GC. Sheila Cornwell (83-12-71)


topped Division One from Irene Hinks (87-16-71) and Joan Woods (117-40-77) won Division Two from Rosemary Simms (102-25-77). The combined efforts of Mike


Kellett, Dave Chippendale, Robert Hilton and Paul Wray were good enough to win the four-man team event a t Whalley GC with 91 sta­ bleford points. The rapidly improving standard


of junior golf a t Mytton Fold was demonstrated in the junior stable­ ford competition a t the club on Saturday. Playing off eight handicap, Jake


Chadwick returned 44 points, just pipping junior captain, Nick Pear­ son, with 43 points off seven handi­ cap. Following his round, Chadwick,


who is only 15- years-old, has now reached the required age-related handicap of seven to qualify for consideration for County coaching - the first Mytton Fold junior to reach this level. Jean Dearden and P a t Caple

The mixed team also suf­
