There are no major surprises following the losses of Jer Lane to the Bradford League and Shelf, who have made the short trip to move in with Northowram Hedge Top after both clubs were struggling for players.

Bradley and Colnebridge, who only fielded one team in 2017, in the second teams’ competition, have attracted enough recruits to have two sides this summer.
