This means that any proposals for new rules or amendments to existing rules must be in the hands of the league secretary by June 28.

Runcorn's English international player Ian White will be giving an exhibition at the Fiddlers III pub on June 30 at 7.30pm when he will be playing against as many players as time allows.

The Halfway House is intending to start a Super League team. Games would be played on a Sunday night every two weeks.
