Jer Lane score runs on the off side during a 52-run victory over visitors Sandal in the Bradford Premier League's Gordon Rigg Division Two League Cup Final. The stone terraced homes at the north end of the ground pre-date the club's 1925 arrival at this corner of Bradford's Clayton district.
Ultimately, it was a comfortable win for the hosts in a showdown of teams unbeaten in the Bradford Premier League's 2020 COVID-truncated third tier season. Jer Lane did very well to bounce back from 60-5 in the 15th over to post a defendable total just shy of 200 then bowled sufficiently accurately to ensure Sandal never got ahead of the required run rate.
Pacer Brandon Hewlett (3-47) removed three of the top four Jer Lane batters, including Abubakar Dawood (25) and Farakh Hussain (24). Asad Mahmood (30), in at number 7, steadied the ship before fellow lower order duo Amjid Khan (34 not out) and on-loan Zeeshan Qasim (33) put on 47 for the ninth wicket. Sam Noden (2-30) and Sam Scott (2-32) were the best of Hewlett's fellow bowlers.
Sandal's reply, seldom flowing, reached 72-4 by its halfway point. After that, the dismissals of Danny Riley (49) and Ian Shuttleworth (31) were mortal blows. The visitors' last four wickets added just 15. Pick of the Jer Lane attack were Ibrar Younis (3-26), Amjid (2-26), on-loan Kez Ahmed (2-33) and Mohammed Jamal (2-35).

Jer Lane (formed in 1923 as Jer Lane Congregational Church Cricket Club) have played at this ground, bounded by Jer Lane, Whernside Mount and Ascot Avenue, since 1925. Formerly a farmer's field, the site was bought for £800 by two mill-owning families, Drake and Fieldhouse. A trust ensures it cannot be used for anything but cricket. Centuries ago, coal was mined here in bell pits. Subsidence is a problem, for the cricket club and for the residents of neighbouring dwellings. The undulating pitch, very narrow from side to side, slopes markedly downhill from south to north. It's not unknown for the abandoned mine workings to give way, producing holes of varying size. Before joining the Bradford League in 2018, Jer Lane were members of the Bradford Mutual Sunday School League, the Bradford Central League and the Halifax League.
This form at the front of the book always bothered me. I've never actually had to fill it out before. I've never made my kids fill it out before.
This year, I am.

Halifax amateurs Siddal on the attack during a 30-14 defeat by Kingstone Press Championship semi-pros Keighley Cougars in the third round of rugby league's Tetley's Challenge Cup. The tie, watched by a crowd of 560, was played at the Laund Hill ground of Huddersfield YMCA RUFC because Siddal's Chevinedge ground falls short of the standards required for the Challenge Cup by the RFL.

This book has some great, minimalist illustrations with some gorgeously over-saturated photos.
I just love the title of this book from 1919. Interestingly, the book is a textbook for elementary school students and it does not focus on attitude, as you might expect, but about health and hygiene! One chapter is called Germ Plagues, and it stresses the importance of being examined for tuberculosis,

Our old English textbooks are pretty laughtastic. Our new ones aren't much better.
The most important thing that the students learn in first grade of junior high school is that, in America, everything is BIG. From then on, they want to go to America to eat BIG HAMBURGERS (despite the fact that burgers in Japan are of equal or greater size).
Allow me to draw your attention to the practice question: "Does Yuki want to ride?"
... well, it IS big, after all.
