EXTRA TIME DRAMA SEES LYMM THROUGH
An enthralling game of rugby league watched by a sizable crowd at Crouchley Lane saw Lymm progress to the North West Premier Grand Final with a nail-bighting extra time victory over a plucky Wigan Riversiders side. With both sides locked at 14 points each and with moments remaining, Lymm believed they had done enough to win the game in regular time when Pete Leonard banged over a field goal. However a Wigan player touched the ball in the flight and although it went over the sticks, the referee ruled the effort out. • Match Report

LYMM END REGULAR SEASON WITH A WIN AT THE SEASIDE

LYMM TAKE MINOR PREMIERSHIP
Lymm RL were crowned Minor Premiership winners with a game to spare in the North West Premier Division after a nail-bighting one point victory over near neighbours Widnes Saints, who had led the League standings on points difference going into the contest. With many permutations possible for who would finish top in the regular season, Lymm were clear on one thing, a victory would see them head back to the top and claim the title even before playing the final league game at Blackpool. • Full Match Report

THE BIG ONE
The two front running teams in this season's North West Premier Division go head to head on Saturday at Crouchley Lane. Since the inception of the competition the Saints have been the leading side in the North West and Saturday's match promises to be a mouth watering contest. The Widnes team is likely to be at full strength after St Maries completed their fixtures in the National Conference Summer Pilot League. The game was originally scheduled to take place in Widnes but has been reversed to Lymm, as Widnes failed to send a team for the first fixture back in June. The game kicks-off at 2:30pm. Lymm will be hoping to build on their committed display against Crosfields as they go in search of an inaugural Minor Premiership in only their second ever season.

WEEKEND ROUND-UP
A 12-32 away day win for Widnes at New Broughton sent the Saints to the top of the table whilst elsewhere Wigan moved upto fourth and a play-off spot with a 32-12 win over Runcorn. Lymm are still well placed for a Minor Premiership, with Widnes now left with just one game to play against Lymm next weekend. Lymm meanwhile have a game in hand with a a trip to Blackpool on August 1st.

RFL REVEAL PLAY-OFF PLANS
The Rugby Football League have revealed their plans for the final stages of this year's Rugby League Conference. Lymm have two league games left on July 25 (Widnes) and August 1 (Blackpool). The top four teams will then play-off in the North West. Lymm will be involved in a play-off semi-final on the weekend of August 7/8/9 and should they succeed, they will then take their place in the North West Final on August 15. Once the regional winners have been confirmed from each of the divisions the national play-off competition will begin. Quarter-final ties are on August 22, semi-final ties are on September 6 and the Grand Final is to be held at Derby RFC on September 13.

LYMM PUSH SOAP
Summer met winter at Hood Lane as Lymm RL took the opportunity to travel to Crosfields for a much anticipated friendly match. With Lymm struggling to find games in recent weeks, Crosfields from the Fraser Eagle National Conference League were seen as the ideal opponents as Lymm embark on their assault on the Minor Premiership in the Co-Operative Rugby League Conference North West and the end of season play-off series. • Full Match Report

WEEKEND ROUND-UP
A nail bighting 25-24 win for New Broughton over Wigan saw the Salford based team keep up the pressure at the top of the table, whilst Runcorn returned to action with a 46-14 win over Blackpool to go fourth.

SEASON ENTERS FINAL STAGES
As the end of the normal season approaches, Lymm have just two regular games left against Widnes Saints on July 25 and away at Blackpool on August 1 before the play-off series begins. The Saints game is likely to be played at Crouchley Lane. Unfortunately Rhyl have been unable to raise a team this weekend and the club has taken the opportunity to arrange a friendly with near neighbours and National Conference side Crosfields on Wednesday night (July 15). Next training is on Monday July 13th.

WEEKEND ROUND-UP
Wigan's 58-10 romp over Widnes Saints and an as expected 12-30 win for New Broughton at Blackpool shook up the Rugby League Conference North West Division yet further over the weekend. With another great day planned at Crouchley Lane, Lymm were mightily disappointed that their opponents Runcorn were unable to raise a team. Lymm now sit top of the table, two points clear of Widnes whilst both sides have exactly the same points difference with New Broughton leading the chasing pack.

POINTS SECURED AGAINST WIGAN
A hat-trick of tries from wingman Dane Evans helped Lymm RL to go joint top of the Rugby League Conference North West Premier Division with a 26-16 victory over neighbours Wigan Riversiders.

BLACKPOOL DEFEATED
After two weeks of frustration without a game due to opponents failing to raise a team, Lymm returned to action in emphatic style with a 48-12 victory over Blackpool.
