Slalom success for skiing
ace Dan LOCAL skier Dan Wyatt has got the new dry slope season off to a great start with triumphs at Norwich and Pontypool slopes. Dan travelled to Nor
wich for the first race of the season, and a t the Club National he finished fourth in his age group and fifth overall. The next day he contin
ued his slalom challenge in the more demanding Grand Prix race, where he was delighted to finish sec ond in his age group and fourth overall, establishing a very sound start to the season. The following week saw
*?■
him narrowly beaten into second place in the Celtic Cup at Pontypool in South Wales.
He had been leading the
competition after the first run, but was disappoint ingly edged out in the sec ond to finish overall run ner-up. The following day in the
Pontypool Grand Prix, Dan was again hoping to scoop victory, but his hopes were dashed when the edges of his skis ripped
out on the first run. Amazingly, he managed
to complete the run, which meant he was still in with the chance of a trophy, and with the aid of some borrowed skis, his determi nation paid off as he man aged to finish an incredible third overall - a great result in spite of his diffi culties.

CLITHEROE’S preparations for next season’s assault on the UniBond League First Division have begun to take shape. Manager Lee Sculpher and assis
tant boss Martin Eatough have been busy laying down the foundations for the new campaign. The team don’t actually resume
training until July 1st, but the Blues boss has been bolstered by the news that every single championship-win ning player Mil be returning next sea son, and that several new players have shown an interest in moving to Shawbridge. He said yesterday: “Everyone has
said yes to a return to action next sea son, and at present we're in talks with
RIBBLESDALE WANDERERS Under 18s continued their season with a seven-run defeat a t the hands of Blackburn Northern. The Blackburn side made li5 - l

before Wanderers replied with 108-5 as John Reynolds and Dale Under wood put on 31 and 25 respectively. Elsewhere, the Under 15s saw
Liam Bedford lead the way as Wan derers beat Edenfield by 24 runs. He scored 24 runs alongside John
v*.
Reynolds with 28, Dale Underwood with 31 and Jo Bunvan with 16 not
a few new players, but everyone's still non-committal at this stage.” “Martin Eatough and I have been
in talks every day over the past few weeks, and we've now contacted everyone that we're interested in recruiting for the new campaign. “It's really just a case of sitting
back and waiting for a response.” The Blues have also announced a
string of pre-season friendlies against tough opposition. The first of which is at home to
Stalybridge Celtic, who will be a tough test having recently been placed in the Conference North. This game is set for Saturday, July
17th, and will be followed by a second home game against Silsden the fol lowing week on July 24th. The Blues then travel to old North
out, before taking 4-2 in the second innings, Ribblesdale also saw Daniel Rigg
claim 3-18 to see the side to victory. The Under 13s also won away at
Read after scoring 305-3 (281). Henry Ray hit 15, Andrew
Hutchins managed 21 and Richard Clarkson made 22 as Read man aged 307-6 (259) in reply. Read's run makers were J. Lang
ford (17), T. Raski (12) and E. Lowes (17). The winning week then continued
❖
West Counties rivals Ramsbottom United on Tuesday the 27th, before facing North West Counties Second Division champions Colne on Satur day, July 31st. The Colne game in particular
should be an interesting affair as the Pendle side have proven themselves to be giant killers in the FA Vase, and will be looking for North West Coun ties supremacy this season. Entering August, Clitheroe then
entertain Buckley Town on Saturday the 7th, before experiencing a taste of UniBond football in the form of Pre mier Division side Burscough on Tuesday the 10th. All Saturday games are set for a 3
p.m. kick-off, while the Ramsbottom game has a 7-45 p.m. start, and the Burscough match kicks-off at 7-30 p.m.
Wanderers’ junior sides enjoy victorious week
with the Under Us also proving vic torious at Edenfield. The locals restricted Edenfield to
259-8 (219), thanks to Paul Astin taking 2-3 and Jo Hopkins claiming 2-16. Ribblesdale then put in a winning
score of 323 thanks to individual efforts from David McGrath (24), Joe Hopkins (22) and Andrew Hutchins (18). Two further knocks of 14 apiece
from Michael Clarkson and Paul Astle.
