Ovenden win on all weather pitch
The game was switched to the all weather pitch at Thornton Leisure Centre due to waterlogging at Ovenden’s West Vale ground.
Ovenden, without goal machine John Booth, made a sluggish start against opponents who belied their lowly league position and kept West Riding at bay for the opening 15 minutes.

Matty Hirst pulled off some excellent saves late on to ensure a clean sheet.
