James Alcock's high-flying 3rds take centre stage this Saturday as they host league leaders Marple 2s at St Edward's Park.

Having beaten early pacesetters Littleborough four weeks ago, the Moorlanders face another stiff test against the Stockport outfit, who have won six of their seven games so far this campaign. Leek sit just two points back, with five wins from eight.

With the 1s and 2s once again not playing in this stop-start season, all eyes will be on the 3s as they look to leapfrog the visitors and take top spot in NOWIRUL 5 East.

Kickoff is at 2.15pm. The clubhouse will be open from 1.15pm, with England v New Zealand live from 3.10pm on TNT Sports.

Elsewhere, our Academy XV are on the road for an away friendly against Paviors Colts. The 12 noon kickoff will provide another great test for the lads as they continue to build momentum this season.

Please come down and enjoy a cracking afternoon of grassroots and international rugby at the club.
