More comings and goings

The Nidderdale League has announced that the 2013 season will see two new clubs playing in the league. Thirsk II, who have competed in The York Senior League since 1963 will take the place of Northallerton Wolves (aka fourth team) who have resigned and also joining the league will be Arthington II, the result of the coming together of Arthington and their ground sharers, Hawksworth CC. They will compete in Div 9, the bottom division of the league.

Whist the Nidderdale are 'pleased to announce' the additional teams, overall  it represents a net loss of one team, namely Northallerton's fourth team who conceded a number of games towards the end of last season.

Another change confirmed is the movement of New Farnley to The Bradford League. The Central Yorkshire League has allowed the transfer without insisting that New Farnley wait until 2014. They will compete in the second division which will now have an even number of teams, thuis eliminating blank dates.
