First SY fixtures 2004
Submitted by Mr Angry on 10 October, 2003 - 08:47.Provisionally, the 2nds first fixture in the SY Premier league is 24 April at Whitley Hall while the 3rds entertain Whiston PC at home in SY Division 2. The final fixtures for each side in 2004 are scheduled for 18 September.
Dinner Season
Submitted by Waif on 24 September, 2003 - 20:15.Now that the playing is over we are compelled to go to lots of dinners and eat & drink lots in preparation for Xmas & to make sure that we don't lose too much weight before next season.
We therefore have to take a table at the South Yorkshire League Dinner which is to be at Phoenix Saturday 22 November starting at 7:00pm. Not sure how much but it's usually been around £15 a head & the wine list is red or white.
If you want to come please let me know by either posting here of giving me a bell, text or whatever. So far there's me, Dicko, Stewie and Tony. Please let me know ASAP so I can confirm to the league.

3rds miss out out in last ball thriller
Submitted by Mr Angry on 14 September, 2003 - 18:40.Warmsworth 188 for 8 (McCann 106, Mark Winter 3-47, Tony Miller 3-57), SCCC 187 for 6 (Richards 49, Heslop 39, Horsfield 3-44). What a close game......
SCCC II 2 points, Warmsworth 5 points read more »

Thirds stay in Div 2
Submitted by Mr Angry on 10 September, 2003 - 12:28.The latest Division 2 tables show that Shiregreen and Warmsworth (who we play this weekend) get promoted, and that Thorncliffe II and either Rotherham or Rossington go down.
We shall be joined by Tickhill and either Frecheville or Barnsley from div 3 and Coal Aston and either Rotherham Phoenix II or Denaby & Cadeby from div 1.
We need to be aware that Div 2 is the tightest in the league in the sense that the point spread between top and bottom is the narrowest. Every point counts.
correction
It seems the tables are wrong and Rotherham have another game to be played on Sunday. If Rotherham, Rossington, and Mexborough all win their games and we lose with no points, we go down. So, still all to play for.
