Yorkshire League Teams of Eight Final Positions

Wednesday, 15 April 2026 by Russ de Haney

The final matches were played out on Sunday 29th March.

 

Our first team were unable to overturn York's lead in Division 1 to retain their title but never the less secured an impressive 15-5 win over York who suffered their only defeat of the season!

 

Sheffield B narrowly lost to Leeds A 12 - 8 finishing 5th in the table, having already secured their place in Division 1 to ensure Sheffield remain the only club to have two teams in the top Division.

 

In Division 5 the C team beat second placed Brighouse A 19-1 to cement the title, some 25 VP's clear of Olicana C for their 3rd promotion and 2nd successive League title in 3 years.

 

In Division 7 the D team beat leaders Leeds D 12 - 8 to secure 2nd place and promotion...for half the team that was also their 3rd successive promotion in three years.

 

Sheffield E team also won 16 - 4 at Halifax B, to claim 3rd spot, just 2 VP's behind the D team...and may yet be promoted as well.

 

All in all a very successful year for SBC in the Yorkshire League.
