Despite another week of torrential downpours Second Division league leaders Eggborough were able to get their game against Drax Village played but sadly for them all their hard work proved to be in vain as they suffered a 56 runs defeat.
Drax batted first, making 138 for 8 with Steve Smith hitting 52 then Eggborough were restricted to 82 for 9 by way of reply which means Drax moved to within four points of second placed Airmyn in the table and a further thre behin their hosts. Airmyn's game at Thorne Colliery, Howden Town v Goole Firemen and the dress rehearsal of the Arthur Brant Final Outcasts v Carlton Towers were all called off due to waterlogged grounds, Outcasts Hirst Priory being almost totally under water when inspected at lunchtime!
The same can apply to the Askern Welfare ground which is reportedly unlikely to see much cricket this month if things don't change soon so their game with Burn was a very early casualty and was soon joined on the postponed list by Goole Town v Hensall , Pollington v Fishlake and Sykehouse v Hirst Courtney meaning it was a complete wash out in Division One.
Monday July 9th is the new date for the Snaith League Shield Semi Finals Askern v Sykehouse ( although this one may well have to be at Sykehouse ) and Goole Town v Fishlake after which the Final will take place at Carlton Towers on Monday July 23rd.
