CLITHEROE tennis ace Mary Brass won the East Lancashire Ladies’ Individual Competition for the second year running by beating strong Whalley opponent Kathy Green. The finals were held at the weekend
at Burnley Tennis Club in sweltering conditions. Maiy made a nervous start to the
match and failed to get into her stride - Kathy managed to pass Mary at the net throughout the first set and ran away with it 6-0. It was a different story in the next
set though, and once Mary took an early game, she won the set 6-4. And in a close fought battle that
was to the credit of both local players, Mary won the decisive third set M . . Mary featured again in a final,
pairing with Steve Pym in the Mixed Competition. Unfortunately for the local pair,
m
they were unable to overcome their strong opponents, and ended up with the runners-up medal. In the junior section, one of
Clitheroe’s most promising juniors, Emma Calvert, recorded two final victories, winning the under 13’s com petition 6-0,6-2, and also going on to win the under 16’s 6-3,6-0. Tennis in Clitheroe and Whalley has never been stronger, and it nice to
see players from both clubs reaching
district finals. Clitheroe Tennis Club mil be hav
ing it’s Summer Ball at Clitheroe Golf Club this weekend, with the club hop ing to raise money to develop the clubhouse and continue to improve facilities at Chatburn Road. There will be a Gala Day run by
the Glitheroe Cricket, Bowling and Tennis Club on Sunday, July 10th between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m. - a fun day out for all the family. There mil be a bouncy castle, face
painting, cake stall, tombola, goal game, beat the keeper, ball the pro, and at the tennis club there will be a game to see how fast can you serve, and a ball machine on hand to test your shots. A good family day out for all-come along. CLITHEROE Tennis Club moved safely through to the semi-finals of the cup, although the match with Whalley C was not without its drama. Derek Parrott and Daniel Bush
again took the coveted number one position, but in just the second game of the match, the injury-prone Par rott yet again twisted an ankle, which, with all his other injuries, placed a heavy burden on his partner to carry the match. They lost the first set on a tie
break, but then managed to take the
second set. On the second court Phil Mileham
and Tony Bush, much the stronger pair for Clitheroe in recent outings, combined seamlessly to win their
match 6-2,6-2. Mileham held his accurate serve
throughout the'match, and Bush made his customary delightful over head smashes to finish off the Whal ley pair. Phil and Tony repeated their score to win 6-2, 6-2 again in the second
match. Daniel Bush and Derek Parrott
again struggled in their second match - Daniel having to make all the ruii- ning to compensate for his partner’s now familiar lack of mobility around the court, although they did well to fight back against the second Whal ley pair and force another tie break. In the end, Parrott and Daniel
Bush were not required to complete either of their matches as the stronger pair of Mileham and Tony Bush had already won the tie for the home side by winning both their matches in straight sets. Next weekend’s fixture will see a
repeat of this match as Clitheroe travel to Whalley in the league fix ture, although they may need a dif ferent combination of fit players.
Whalley can’t upset the odds
WHALLEY Tennis Club C team failed to cause an upset in the cup against Clitheroe A. Tom Ormerod and James Burke lost 6-2, 6-2
I'f’ to their Clitheroe counter parts, but in a curious method of scoring, which will not be replicated at Wimbledon, the second match was left at one set
all. - In the reverse singles.
Local pair shine inTT races
CLITHEROE motorbike and side car duo John Holden and Jamie Winn finished third in this year’s Hilton Hotel Sidecar Race at the Isle of Man TT Festival. The June 4th competition saw
Manx pair Nick Crowe and Darren Hope win the event as they recorded their first TT victory by a margin of 2.3 seconds over Castleford outfit Steve Norbury and Andy Smith, who
finished second. At the end of lap one, Holden and
Winn were in fourth place with their Honda 600 averaging 106.86 miles per hour, but as leaders Dave Molyneux and Daniel Sayle, who posted the fasted average lap speed of 111 miles per hour, retired from the race in the second lap, the locals com fortably took third place ahead of Philip Dongworth and Stuart Castle
of Worcester. The second lap saw the Clitheroe
team average 108.12 miles an hour in third place, which is where they stayed in the final lap to finish in a time of 1 hour 3 minutes 6.5 seconds. The winning time for the 113 miles
was 1 hour 1 minute 49.3 seconds, recording an average speed of 110 miles an hour.

Wall and Drew edge three-way tie for title
TONY Wall and Jonathon Drew had the better back nine to take first prize in Clitheroe Golf Club’s fourball Sta- bleford on Saturday. Three pairings tied with 45 points
but the Archie Moro-Gary Speak partnership had to settle for third place behind Phil Hanson and David Foster, who took second behind the Wall-Drew winners. Ideal weather and a course at it’s
best produced many impressive scores, with a further three pairings only one
shot off the top. Dave Thornhill produced his round
of the season in the midweek medal and Tradesmans’ Trophy Qualifier, returning a nett 67 off his five handi cap.
Paul Shackleton took a break from
his busy schedule to produce a nett 68 and take second place from Paul Traynor after a card play-off. The consistent David Heesom had to settle for fourth place, with Simon
Cherry in fifth. Heesom showed his bottle again by
winning the singles’ Stableford after a card play-off with Alan Houghton, both returning 39 points. Ian Black took third spot from Phil
Hanson, while Rob Andrew was one off the pace with a 37. The captain’s day for juniors pro
duced a sensational result-for a new comer to the game having the maxi mum 40 handicap. Sam Cherry took captain Vic Mor
ris’ prize with a nett 51. Ben Frank- land’s nett 61 was 10 off the pace but tour better than James Taylor’s 65. Sarah Hale produced another hand
icap reducing score with 66 to pip jun ior captain Andrew Heesom, who must have thought his return of 72- 6- 66 would earn better than fifth prize. Meanwhile, Jake Foley took the
LGU medal on Saturday with a 94-28- 66
.James Taylor was second with 90-
22-68, finishing one shot ahead of Jack Rothwell, who carded 86-17-69. • THE LGU Medal and Gilbert
Benson Trophy saw Jean Anne Speak top the Silver Division at Clitheroe GC last Thursday. She scored 89-16-73 to beat Dorothy Catlow into second (86-12-74), who in turn beat Sheila Cornwell (88-12-76) into third. In the Bronze Division, Eileen Lam
bert came out on top with a round of 96-24-72 to claim the Benson Trophy. Kath Bithell achieved second with 104-28-76, ahead of lady captain Gill Wightman in third with 99-23-76. • THE fourball medal at Whalley
Golf Club proved to be a close affair, with a card play-off giving victory to Colin T. Elliott and Trevor Thornber Mth a nett 67 from Kevin Walker and
Neil Ashworth. Les McCormick and Martin Byrne
took third place with a 68. In the evening, members enjoyed
the best weather of the year for the annual club barbecue, featuring a Caribbean steel band. . Special thanks to honorary head
chefs John Slinger and John Pollard, and all other volunteers, for their
cooking. The constant threat of thunder
storms on Sunday afternoon caused the postponement of The Open Mixed
Fourball. All morning players had completed
their rounds but, with the weather worsening in mid-afternoon, the club had no alternative other than to re schedule the event. This will take place on Sunday,
25th. September. Would all players please note that
their starting times for the re-arranged event are the same as on the original
date Meanwhile, once again Peter Ben
son and Bob Caladine proved that experience can overcome the onset of old age by scoring 39 points to finish in fifth place in a large field in the Bacup Seniors Open. The first four places were all tied on
40 points and, but for a missed short putt on the final green, they would have been in first place. The ladies’ section were also in
action in the Longworth Cup second qualifying round. The four qualifiers were Jane Smed-
ley, who shot an 85-16-69, Wendy Green (105-30-75), Daphne Dawson (85-10-75) and Jane Boxall (92-16-76). • THE winner of Category One in
the June Medal at Stonyhurst Park Golf Club was J. Exell, who carded 63. Category Two winner was E. Drury
(65). Athlete Anna storms to hurdles win
ANNA Griffiths was in action at Sport City, Man chester on Sunday in the Premier Division of the National Junior League. The Clitheroe athlete
competed not only against a quality field, but inter-, esting weather conditions, • which included an electric storml Anna produced, for her, a below par shot putt, the
event she is competing in at the English Schools’ Championships, with a putt of 10.35m. She then won the 400m
hurdles, her first in the league, beating all the girls who beat her in the North of England Champi onships. Anna judged it perfectly
and ran anothe big PB of 63.56, adding to the frus
tration that she has not ^ been selected to run that ^ event at the ESAA event ^ in Birmingham, despite being ranked fourth in the ^ Senior Girls’ age group. She then ran a leg of the ^
4xl00m relay, and her next big focus will now be the AAAs at Bedford at the - |- beginning of July.

wvvw.clitheroetoday.co.uk Clit'hero’e Advertiser &'Times, Thursday, June 23r&,‘ 2005 71 Burgess burst seals win
FIVE wickets from Lee Burgess helped Whalley annihilate Baxen- den by eight wickets on Saturday. Simon Gorton also picked up
three victims as the locals put their hosts to the sword in their own back yard. But in truth, it was a fine all
round bowling display that meant they travelled home from Back Lane with the win. With a three-pronged bowling
attack of Burgess, Gorton and David O’Neill, Whalley restricted their hosts to just 92-9 from their allotted 45 overs. And although only picking up
one wicket, O’Neill more than played his part with eight maidens
from his nine overs. With Mark Rishton and Fran
cois Herbst opening the Baxenden innings, the pair made 13 before the former holed out to John Rain to give O’Neill the early break through. But from then on it was the Gor
ton and Burgess show, with Callum Waddington seeing his defences breached by Gorton for three. Ten runs later and opener Herb
st finally went for four, before David Usher found Rain again to depart for 13. Professional Indika Gallage
attempted some kind of recovery, but as wickets continued to tumble around him, his efforts were to
prove in vain. Simon Payne (3), Russell Howarth (0) and Danny Hother- sall (1) all departed in quick suc cession. And Burgess rounded off his five
wicket haul with the priceless wick et of Gallage for 18, before Gorton clean-bowled Pete Usher for 13. Chasing 93 to win was never
going to be a tall order for the Whalley batsmen, and openers Ted Topham and Lee Kearsley soon got to work. Topham found the boundary
ropes on three occasions before he eventually found the safe hands of Danny Hothersall, off Stephen Bulcock for 16.
Read claw victory from jaws of defeat
READ got their league season back on track with a nailbiting win at Earby. With the home side needing 33 off the
last three overs for victory. Read seemed to be cruising. However, Andrew Rushton was
smashed for 17 off the 43rd over as Earby sensed a last-gasp win. But just one delivery later their hopes
were shattered, as substitute paid man Tosh Arothe removed Ian Clarkson for a rip-roaring 27. That sealed a 14-run win for Read, as
they picked up maximum points in this basement battle. With both sides occupying a place in
the bottom four before the start of play, victory for both was crucial. But it was Warren Eastham’s men
who picked up the spoils, with Arothe and Rushton leading the onslaught. The pair picked up nine of the 10
wickets on offer, as the majority of the Earby line-up failed to make an impres sion.
Openers Sam Munns (41) and profes
sional Mohammed Ayub (37) were both sent packing by Rushton as he picked up a five-wicket haul. And but for the late antics of Clark
son, only Stephen Pickles (12) ventured into double figures before he holed out to
Matthew Doughty off skipper Eastham. Earlier in the day, after winning the
toss and electing to bat. Read suffered the worst possible start after Nick Marsh was caught by Derrick Proud oft Pete Baistow for two. But teenager Will Driver and paid
man Arothe set about repairing the innings, and between them they did a fine job. Driver went on to reach his half centu
ry after cracking four fours and two sixes, only to hole out to David Cockell off Ayub for 57. That was after Arothe had fallen
exactly the same way for 27, while Terry Little would also go on to make his 50. That landmark would arrive in just 60
deliveries, but as he continued to pile on the runs, he was running out of partners. Eastham (6), Andrew Turner (0),
Doughty (9) and Rushton (9) all fell cheaply, before Little finally fell for 55 after holing out to Baistow off Clarkson on the final ball of the innings. But their score of 169-8 would prove
enough to secure victory, and hopefully be the catalyst for an upturn in fortunes. This Saturday sees Read host
Clitheroe (wickets pitched 2 p.m.). On Tuesday, Read face Padiham in the Twenty/20 Cup, start time 6-15 p.m.
But by that time the damage
had been done with the score on 41, as professional Phil Thornton made his way to the middle. Thornton was a man on a mis
sion, as he attempted to mop up proceedings as quickly as possible. He cracked five fours and three
sixes in a 36-ball knock of 42, and by the time he fell to Hothersall, the scores were level. And it was left to Kearsley to
crack the winning runs, as he fin ished unbeaten on 28. The locals took just over 24
overs to reach their target, and will hope for more of the same on Sat urday when they entertain Padi- ham (wickets pitched 2 p.m.).
Double delight
RIBBLESDALE Wan derers seconds consolidat ed their lead at the top of the First Division on Sat urday, before a sweet derby victory over Clitheroe in the Lawrenson Cup Quar ter-Final the following day. Wanderers were looking
to get back to winning ways after two consecutive defeats had seen their 14- point leadcut to just two, and they comfortably despatched third-placed Burnley Belvedere. Having been put into
bat. Belvedere never really got going and finished on 127-9, thanks mainly to some tight bowling from Ian Britcliffe, who finished with figures of 5-37 from 15 overs. In reply, Ribblesdale
easily passed their target with five wickets in hand and 15 overs to spare. On Sunday, Church
Meadow was the venue for the quarter-final against Clitheroe. Ribblesdale made a
steady start after being invited to bat, and at 102- 2 off 30 overs, they were hopeful of pushing on towards a target of 200. However, they had reck oned without the resur
gence of Graham Kershaw, who returned late on in the innings to take six wickets in the space of 11 balls. He finished with figures
of 7-23 from 7.5 overs, and at tea, it was the visitors who were much the happi er.
Andy King top-scored
with 52, and another Aus tralian not having the best of cricketing weekends was Andy Coxall, who was run out for 481 The Clitheroe innings
got off to a terrible start, with Barry Spencer removing the first three batsmen with just 16 runs on the board. The decision to bring
Paul Spencer into the attack was greeted with concern by some of the spectators, but it proved to be inspirational as he removed three of the Clitheroe men. They continued to lose
wickets steadily, but were also scoring, and the game looked like it could go either way. As the tension mounted,
it was Ribblesdale who held on to finally bowl Clitheroe out for 140 to claim a place in the semi finals.
Wanderers’ fine run ended by high-flyers
RIBBLESDALE Wanderers crashed to a 65-run defeat at high flying Bamoldswick on Saturday, bringing to an end their recent run of success. Despite the bowling prowess of
Terry Braithwaite, and the fact that the side got off to a good start in the field after winning the toss, the Victory Park outfit ran rough shod over the locals with the ball, taking out the last three of the Ribblesdale order Mthout score. Things looked good for Ribbles
dale when Barnoldswick profes sional Jeevantha Kulatunga was hit on the knee and had to retire in only the fourth over on three. His replacement Raja Arshad
didn’t trouble the scorers either as he was easily removed by Gerard
De Bruin for 0. But Matthew Nutter proved to
be a thorn in the Church Meadow men’s side as when he came to the crease, as he punished any ball off line, quickly racking up the runs to top score for the West Craven side. However, David Howard was his
usual reliable self, tying down the home side with some very disci
plined bowling, but the batting pair had added 47 to take their team up to 57 in the 19th over when Howard removed opener Ian Scothem for 14. Braithwaite then came into the
attack and the home side really struggled to cope with his left arm spinners. The former captain ripped
through the order to finish with impressive figures of 5-53. Kulatunga resumed his innings
after recovering from the knock to his knee, but he didn’t add to his tally as he was quickly bowled by Braithwaite. The in-form Braithwaite then
took the all important wicket of Nutter after the Barnoldswick man had made 40 of his side’s run ning total of 67 runs. From then on, each of the Bar-
lick batsmen came in and got a start only to come up against the brick wall of Braithwaite, who con tinued to take wickets on a regular basis and prevent the home side form amassing any sizeable total. He removed Paul Beech (10), John Hall (26) and Luke Hodgson
(11), the last of which was caught and bowled, to claim a well deserved five-wicket haul. Aside from Michael Scothern
being bowled by De Bruin for 16, captain Jon Pickup finished unbeaten for 20 alongside Sid Sher- az (4) as Barnoldswick finished with 164-8 for the innings. In reply, the locals got off to a
slow start as the home side’s deliv eries were bowled with real disci pline. Ryan Gladwin went for 12 and
Trotter followed for five as Ribbles dale crawled to 22 from 13 overs. In-form David Howard and
Martin Peel then added 25 before the latter was dismissed for 16, but Ribblesdale were struggling at 45- 3 in the 21st over. Skipper Martin Briggs came to
the crease to alleviate the problem and back up Howard, but the lat ter soon went for 11, bowled by Scothern. Things didn’t improve much
after that as paid man De Bruin only made one ruin before he was dismissed cheaply too. So wth Ribblesdale in real trou
ble, Alistair Marsh came to the crease, where he and Briggs had to score at least six an over if they were to get their team back in con tention. Unfortunately the pair only
added 30 before Marsh was dis missed for 14 with just 80 runs on the board, and captain Briggs then did his best before being unluckily run out by Kulatunga for 25. In the end the game was quickly
wrapped up by the Victory Park side as all three of Ribblesdale’s last batsman all registered ducks, finally ending the innings on 99 to see Barnoldswick scoop a maxi mum seven points. Wanderers entertain Cherry
Tree on Saturday, wickets pitched 2 p.m. Ribblesdale also take on Earby
tomorrow night at the Applegarth in the Twenty/20 Cup, wickets pitched 6-15 p.m., before taking on Clitheroe at Chatburn Road on Tuesday at the same start time, entry £1.
Cobras
lose out CLITHEROE Cobras Under 15s went do\vn to a narrow defeat against Great Harwood in a game that was on a knife edge throughout. Tight bowling restricted
Harwood to few scoring opportunities. Jamie Hollingsworth
caused all sorts of problems and he was rewarded with a brilliant hat-trick, with all his victims bowled. He eventually finished
\vith 4-6, and together with great bowling from Ian Scott (3-13) and Ben Brass (3 for 16), Harwood were dismissed for 104. Clitheroe's reply started
very solidly with a good opening partnership between James Sharpies and Oliver Wrathall. Sharpies fell for 15 but Wrathall continued to anchor the innings with a fine 22. Unfortunately, Har
wood's bowlers were also finding a good line and the innings began to lose some impetus with the middle^' order getting some what
■ bogged down. Mark Higson gave them -
hope with some forceful hitting in his unbeaten 19, however they ran out of - overs agonisingly short of their target. CLITHEROE Cobras Under 13s A side narrowly lost out to local rivals Read at Chatburn Road. Batting first, Bowness
(11) and Le-Breton (6) got them off to a steady start before McKenna (17) and Walsh (9) came to the crease and pressed the accelerator, taking the score to 49. Robinson (20) hit some
mighty blows and Dewhurst (19) completed the innings, leaving the Clitheroe outfit on a credi ble 82. . In reply. Read played it
cagey, happy to see off the bowling of Dewhurst and Bowness for little return. McKenna came on and
took a vital wicket, but Howells stepped up a gear and hit 22. The Lowes brothers kept
the board moving, and by the time the last pair of Marsh (17) and Alston(15) came together, they needed 32 to win. They achieved this by
scoring a single off the last ball of the match. In all, an excellent game
with both sides showing why they are challenging for the title.
Rimington
stay on top RIMINGTON emerged victorious in their Clitheroe and Distirct Cricket League top of the table clash with Riverside. The latter posted a less
than challenging target of 100-6, before Rimington passed the target Mth just four mckets down. Liam Winstanley scored
a half-century for Calder- stones in their narrow twb- run win over Chipping A, while Low Moor earned a comprehensive nine-\vicket win over Chipping Ram blers.
