If you’ve been affected by any of the topics in this article, you can get support from the organisations listed here. It’s been a deeply troubling few weeks across the country with the UK riots pulling back the curtain on ugly societal divisions.

Bradford Park Avenue Ladies win at Crossflatts to go top
There were a few games being held on Sunday and to be totally honest, the choice was made for me – considering the top two in the league were playing each other. What league? What top two? I hear you ask. Well, as you may or may not know [depending on whether you have read […]

Yorkshire club cricket is blessed with every cup competition you could possibly imagine. Inter-league, one-off contests, historic silverware and innovations only a year or two old.

YCSPL: Oughtibridge win at Conisbrough to lead Division One
August promises to be an eventful time at Conisbrough Cricket Club. On the month’s opening Saturday, I dropped by the club’s St Peter’s Drive ground to watch an absorbing third-versus-first Yorkshire Cricket Southern Premier League clash with Division One promotion rivals Oughtibridge War Memorial, who edged a close encounter, by three wickets, with a little […]
West Yorkshire Women and Girls’ League: Menston spring a surprise at Skipton
I’ve been rather unlucky over the past two weeks. Sundays have been put aside to cover women’s cricket – but frustratingly, there have been relatively few games scheduled, and the last one that I had planned to go to was postponed…which I only found out about when I turned up at the ground. This week, […]
Upper Wharfedale claim the points at scenic Bolton Abbey
I had two potential destinations to choose from on Saturday, one being an Airedale & Wharfedale Senior Cricket League game, and the other in the Theakston Nidderdale League.
