Fifteen Clubs scored points on this round, with York coming out on top followed very closely by David Brown and Keighley who opened their account for 1998.

Ilkley maintain their lead over Sporting Escort Owners, who have a healthy lead over North Humberside, Malton and Selby.

David Brown are now in the top ten with Keighley, Airedale and Pennine, plus Tra ckrod all outside in the relegation zone.

Many thanks to Derek Lee and his team of helpers, who ran an excellent friendly event at this rather rough venue.
