The focus of attention in the Snaith League on July 11th was in Division Two where joint leaders Howden Town and Carlton Towers went head to head and it was the former who have now opened up a three points lead with a game in hand to boot.
SNAITH LEAGUE DIVISION TWOHowden were bowled out for 119 by Carlton , Wes Pears top scoring with 39 while Mike Pounder hit 27 , Tom Boddye taking 3 for 28 for Carlton who were restricted to 108 for 5 in reply , Scott Woffenden making 31 and Matty Thom 28 in a tight and enthralling game. Eggborough are just a point behind Carlton now after they gained a nail biting victory at Sykehouse where they hit 139 for 6 thanks in the main to Drew Pearson's 46 , Chris Marshall taking 3 for 32 for the home side who fell just four runs short when chasing their target , James Davies scoring 50 not out with Scott Tyson taking an important 3 for 41 for the Power Station side. Finally in the Second Division Pollington beat Drax Village by 47 runs and had a centurion in Slater who hit a magnificent 108 not out in their total of 164 for 4 before Drax responded with 117 for 6.

SNAITH LEAGUE DIVISION ONEThere was no change at the top of Division One as the top two won by default , Burn failing to field a team against Goole Town whilst the same applied to Airmyn against Fishlake so the headlines were taken by Oliver Coulman of Outcasts who scored a superb 105 not out against Hirst Courtney in the Isle sides 180 for 2 which proved enough to beat Hirst by 36 runs , although Phil Alford ( 35 ) Craig Lawson ( 36 ) and Osbourne ( 30 ) all batted well to keep Outcasts on their toes. Finally Hensall , like Burn , are now in the last chance saloon following their deafeat against Askern Welfare which leaves them needing to win all three remaining games now to have any hope of avoiding the drop. They were bowled out for 95 by Askern who then eased to 98 for 3 thanks to Ashley Towler's 38 not out and 33 from Max Hudson.

The Arthur Brant Trophy Final between Carlton Towers and Eggborough will take place at Goole Town's ground on July 15th whilst the next round of league fixtures will see a repeat of the Snaith League Shield Final when Goole Town head to Outcasts looking to maintain top spot. Fishlake are just two points behind Goole and will hope to keep up the pressure when they play hosts to Hensall who simply must win to avoid the drop. The same applies to Burn who entertain Hirst Courtney and finally Askern Welfare are at home against Airmyn in a mid table pairing.Howden won't have an easy ride against Thorne Colliery but a win will enhance their promotion hopes whilst Eggborough take on lowly Drax Village looking to climb into second spot on the table. The one other match is at Sykehouse where Pollington are the visitors.
