The pressure is off Ovenden West Riding after a tough few months when they entertain high-scoring Campion to Natty Lane in the Premier Division tomorrow (2.30).
Their top flight status for next season was confirmed on Tuesday night with the award of three points for an abandoned game at Golcar and West Riding made it a double celebration by thumping Hebden Royd Red Star 5-1 in the Halifax FA Saturday Cup final at Old Earth, Elland on Wednesday.

Ovenden will delay selection after checking on knocks picked up by Steve Fullard and Ciaran Green in the cup final while Ryan Brook is cricketing. However, Lee Marsh returns after being cup tied in midweek.

Campion have a couple of top strikers in Mick Burke and Chris Grahame while the experienced Des Hamilton is a key figure in midfield.

Brighouse Town continue their low-key finish to the season with a trip to Ardsley Celtic, who need a win to be sure of beating the drop.

It is a second match in three days for Town who last night drew 1-1 at home to Storthes Hall - a result means that Bay Athletic are Premier Division champions.

Brighouse Town Reserves, who banked another three points at Dynamoes in midweek, continue their Division two promotion quest at home to Hemsworth Reserves.

Ovenden West Riding Reserves visit Beck Lane, Heckmondwike to take on bottom club Littletown Reserves in the Reserve Division.
