The West Riding County Amateur League Premier Division title race has swung the way of Huddersfield-based Bay Athletic, who, after denying Golcar United their chance of lifting the trophy, then set about the task of winning their last five league games with a 7-2 demolition of Lower Hopton.

Ovenden West Riding, who were last season's champions and will play Bay Athletic in the final league game next week, made sure of a top-four finish with a 4-2 home win over second-from-bottom Kirkburton, with Carlton Pownall, John Booth, Andy Gregory and Jordan Coduri scoring for the Halifax side.

Rangers could find themselves finishing fourth as Bradford Horton Sports, who still have one game to play, closed to within two points after a double from Kirk Taylor gave them a 2-0 home win over Thornes.
