West Riding County Amateur League, Premier Division
Storthes Hall 4 Golcar United 0 (att 60)
The opening round of matches in the West Riding County Amateur League and a comfortable victory for Stothes Hall at their new home ground.
Having played for many years at the Police sports ground in Huddersfield, they've now moved to the Warrenside Sports Complex, a newly-developed ground at what was once the home of Northern Counties East League Bradley Rangers.
Apart from the pitch, I couldn't see any evidence of the ground's former existence. The changing rooms and clubhouse are housed in a modern building, set back from the pitch but with a overhanging roof providing some cover for spectators.
The pitch runs widthways, tightly hemmed in both ends, and is railed off. The railings are so new that many sections were still covered in their plastic wrapping.
Storthes Hall took control of the match during a first half in which they scored three times. After the break Golcar were much better, or perhaps Storthes Hall eased off. The visitors were unable to reduce the arrears though, and Storthes Hall managed a late fourth.
