Home comfort for Boys and Victoria
AFTER weeks without home games, Yorkshire League pair Birstall Victoria and Batley Boys have a fixture clash for the second successive week.
The Vic have a very difficult Yorkshire Premier Division game against Hunslet Old Boys at White Lee, while Batley Boys take on Ossett Trinity in the Fred Marshall Senior Cup first round at Halifax Road. Both games start at 2.30pm.
Victoria have had two good home wins on the trot but were beaten 54-0 by the powerful Old Boys at Belle Isle three weeks ago.
The Boys will be hoping to repeat their impressive 13-6 league win at Ossett early last month and there is no doubt the arrival of loose forward Johnny Parrish has livened up their pack and the side are looking the better for it.
The winners have a home game against Fryston on March 27, in the quarter-finals, while Birstall Victoria are at Allerton Bywater.
In Yorkshire Division Three, Shaw Cross A meet Castleford Panthers A at Leeds Road.
