Sun 4th Sept Astley & Tyldesley v Sheffield Astley & Tyldesley

Astley & Tyldesley entertained Sheffield in a Northern League fixture, at Gin Pit on Sunday.

In the Division 1 match, A&T took the lead with a 6-3 heat win in heat 1 and held this until heat 5. However, a fall by the returning Luke Jamson in heat 5 and a shed chain by Reece Pollitt whilst leading heat 6, saw the visitors move into a 6 points lead, which they never lost. Jamson won three races on his return to the team, with Pollitt unbeaten in his other four races. The rest of a young A&T side battled hard, but went down to a solid scoring Sheffield team, 80-66. Kyle Holland top scored for the visitors, with Sam Haines unbeaten in his three rides at reserve.

A&T lost their 100% record in the Division 2 match which followed, as the club's injury list forced A&T to field a young and inexperienced line-up. Matt Snell and Max Evans top scored, with John White winning two races, but Sheffield took the lead in heat 2 and were never headed afterwards, running out comfortable 84-66 winners. Ed Morton, Niamh Morton and Laura Watson led the scoring for Sheffield.
