Two teams progressing very well in the Dunlop Lindum Lincolnshire Seniors Winter League are the Ladies’s Thirds and Ladies’s Fourths.

The Thirds played their last match of the season at the weekend and won Division Two.

Away against Grantham the team of Hilary Calvert, Sharron Thorogood, Helen Cook and Denise Priestley finished the season with a draw, but it was still enough to put the team at the top of the table.

The Fourths look very likely to finish top of Division Four after a 3-1 win over North Scarle Seconds.
