Groundhop August bank holiday matches unveiled

Hundreds of ‘hoppers’ will descend on West Lancs grounds over a bumper August bank holiday (Aug 22-25) with nine matches taking place over four days.

The first match will see Poulton travel to near neighbours Blackpool Wren Rovers on the Friday night.

Then it's a jaunt up the M6 on the Saturday with Askam hosting Crooklands Casuals in the morning game with Dalton then facing Storeys and Ulverston Rangers welcoming Slyne.

On the Sunday, the day begins with Lytham Town heading south of the river to Croston with Turton the opponents at Hesketh Bank.
The final match of the day is Burscough Richmond v Lostock St Gerards.

On Bank Holiday Monday, there's a Bolton derby with CMB v Eagley before reigning champions Tempest United play host to Coppull United to round off the event.

Times for the matches are to be confirmed.
