A MUSICAL extravaganza which features a professional cast, stage set and sound track, will be shown at The Grand, Clitheroe, tomorrow and Saturday evening. This dynamic pop-opera entitled “Luv


Esther” is a love story which spans more than 2,000 years, and will be the last performance before The Grand closes for refurbishment. The compelling drama tells the tale of the


book of Esther and unlocks some of the Bible’s essential messages for life today.

Pumas unlucky to lose out


Whalley Pumas Under 16s......... 1 HasUngden Juniors.................3 WHALLEY were extremely unlucky to come away without any reward in this defeat to Haslingden Juniors. The Pumas started well and had at


least five clear chances before falling behind to a breakaway strike. Whalley went in search of an equalis­


er, but Haslingden survived some amaz­ ing goalmouth scrambles. Haslingden then added a second


before the second half saw Whalley dominate. Sam Townend and Ahsan Iqbal caused


numerous problems for the Haslingden defence, and the locals finally pulled a goal back through Jamie Price. Whalley were then denied a penalty


when a foul inside the box was given as a free kick on the edge of the area, and with time running out, Haslingden

struck again with the killer third goal. Stand-in keeper Chris Eland was


tremendous as was man-of-the-match Declan Fitzhenry. Haslingden Juniors................. 1 Wlialley Under 13s...................0 FOR the second time this season Whal­ ley lost to Haslingden. In a hard-fought first half that saw


the game flow from end-to-end, both defences were in command, and neither side could create clear chances on goal. The second half however saw


Haslingden on top and they always looked the likelier to score but for some good goalkeeping by Sam Jennings. And just as it looked as though the


game would end in a draw, Haslingden netted a winner five minutes from time. Sam Jennings was the referee’s man-


of-the-match and there were excellent performances from all 13 players used.


Goalscorers were Mel-


lisa Mackay, Jade Bolton, and Jade Hou- son and Charley


Almond was named player-of-the-match for an outstanding display.


Dewhurst hat-trick wins the day


Clilheroe Wolves Under 13s Red .. .4 Todmorden Sports Centre.......... 2 WOLVES earned a deserved victory over Todmorden on Sunday with a hat- trick from Dewhurst. The first half of this Warburtons


League game was scrappy, but there was evidence of more fluent passing moves as the game progressed. Man-of-the-match Thomson opened


the scoring when the opposition failed to clear a corner, and after Todmorden equalised, Dewhurst restored the lead, only to see the teams go in level at half­


time. Ideas worked on in training were then employed more in the second half, and

THE Clitheroe and District Darts and


the Wolves regained and extended their lead through Dewhurst, who scored two more to complete his hat-trick - his last an excellent solo effort. Lammack Juniors...................1 Wolves Under 1 4 s .................... 3 WOLVES fought back from a goal down to win at Lammack. Good performances again from Kelly,


Ferguson and Pye, and a man-of-the- match substitute display from Styles, ensured Wolves took the points against a hard-working Lammack side. Two goals from Duplessie and one


from Darnell gave Wolves their second win of the season.


Taylor and Heather Draper. Black Horse and the


Bridge won the darts and dominoes league titles respectively with Kings Arms runners-up in both. The award for the out­


standing female player went to Tracey Parker with Jimmy Hargreaves of Black Horse the league’s top male player.

evening also featured the handing over of cheques to Derian House Children’s Hospice and the North West Air Ambulance, the money raised at a charity evening and through the mixed doubles competition. Teams should note that


the wnter league season will commence on Wednesday.

Skiers slalom to top title


A TEAM from Clitheroe Royal Grammar School have skied their way to a national title. And one of the jubilant


quartet returned to the Ribble Valley with the individual honours. Having one the regional


qualifiers, the local team of Bill Latham, James Lawton, Richard Leeson and Andrew Leeson head­ ed for Kernel Hempstead. Individual and team

When those precious


seconds were counted up, Clitheroe had emerged as the winning team. And Bill Latham had


skied his way to the indi­ vidual title. Speaking on behalf of


the team, Roy Blacktop said: “The 96 teams in the English finals were the very top teams in the country. “It was a fantastic


achievement for Bill to win the individual title and for the team to win as well. . “It is an open event,


which makes the success even more impressive, and now we are all looking for­ ward to the British cham­ pionships in Edinburgh next month.”

Dolphins big haul in North Lancs gala


Clitheroe Dolphins returned from Blackpool’s new £5 million pool at the weekend laden with medals from the North Lancs Swimming Champi­ onship. Accompanied by coach­


es Jonathan Preston, Jane Green and Johanna Chambers, after two days of competition, the club’s medal tally was 11 golds, three silvers and four bronze medals. In a quirky system of


upper speed limits, some swimmers were too fast for medals, and instead were awarded speeding tickets. Elliot Noble won the


100 and 200m butterfly, and was second in the 200m IM, and 200 and 400m freestyle, third in the 200 backstroke and 100m freestyle, and fourth in the 100m breaststroke. Luke Tasker won the


200m freestyle and 50m fly, while Hayleigh Jones was first in the 100m fly, second in the 400m free, fourth in the 50m free, and sixth in the 100m free. There were also excellent
