Dunnington II are the only division five side with a 100 per cent record after brushing aside the challenge posed by Londesbrough Park with clinical efficiency.

Thirteen-year-old Robert Chipps orchestrated Londesbrough's downfall with a 3-9 spell which was well supported by James Rossington (3-16) as Park were paralysed for 67. Gary Andrew was again an early casualty but the Burgess boys, Chris, with 31no and Ian with 21no, then took Dunnington to a rapid nine-wicket victory which gives them a 27-point advantage over second-placed Cawood.

Thirsk produced a remarkable performance when they entertained Huntington at Huby and recorded a seven-wicket win which was engineered by a trio of teenage bowlers, whose cumulative age totalled 44 years. Huntington were bowled out for just 104 with 14-year-old paceman Stuart Christon taking 5-22 in his permitted ten overs. Spinner Anthony Elder, 16, took 3-20 in 16 overs and another 14-year-old, Tom Scaife, took 2-23. Thirsk's batting department was in the experienced hands of Jim McKendrie, who steered his side to the winning post with an unbeaten 62.

Having occupied bottom place in the League and being required to seek re-election in 2004, New Earswick are the current pace setters in division six after hitting the division's highest total at Thorp Arch. Mick Steels made 88no and Rob Wood was unbeaten with 29 as Earswick reached 205-4. John Routledge with 4-42 and Paul Hill (3-22) then made serious inroads into the home side's batting line up but an unbeaten 42 from John Batty enabled Arch to emerge with a draw at 109-9.

Rowntrees have also seen an upturn in their fortunes and are the only side in the division to notch two victories after recording a comfortable win at Wilberfoss.

Stefan Cockerill was the front runner with 63no in Rowntrees' total of 163-7. Kevin Davison virtually matched this with 56 for 'Foss but new recruit Nick Ramsden grabbed 4-49 to send the home team into the pavilion at 106 all out.
