A late addition to the Workington Sunday League has been approved by the management committee.

Workington Reds Under-18s will play in Division One, and although not involved in the opening fixtures, will start on September 3.

Secretary Ron Caffrey said: “We were contacted by Wayne Davidson who runs the team, asking if they could join.

“They are members of an Under-18 League but it only has four competing team, so he is looking to get more games for his lads.

“They will play their home games on the astro turf at Lakes College, Distington.”

The league’s opening fixtures are this Sunday (August 20) and the games are:

Premier Division – Broughton v Deer Orchard; Northside v Pack Horse; Senhouse Club v Sun Inn.

Division One – Gaslight v Dearham; Highfield v Maryport Labour; Maryport Utd v Red House; Salterbeck v Seaton Royal Oak; Silloth Albion v Sun Inn Athletic.
