Leek 1sts close out their league campaign with a home tie against high-flying Manchester tomorrow. Back into the starting lineup come the experienced pair of skipper Joe Newton-Taylor, who switches to loose head, and veteran speedster Josh Fowles.

Try machine Kin Critchlow bolsters the 2nd XV midfield, but otherwise the strong-looking side travelling to Eccleshall for their championship tilt tomorrow is the squad that has taken Andy Thompson's men to the brink of promotion.

And our Colts XV also name a strong side to take on neighbours Stoke in the early kick off, with a place in the County Colts Plate final up for grabs.

The Altrad Park bar will be open from midday as we have a bumper day lined up to celebrate the league season. We will be welcoming our vice-presidents for a pre-match buffet, as well as long-time club sponsors and match day sponsors Leek Building Society. We thank them as well as our match ball sponsors Ornua and our gameday nutrition sponsors Fit Bodies Gym & Fitness.

We will have a hog roast running from 4pm kindly provided by High Peak Hog Roast and sponsored by Leek Storage Solutions.

After the final whistles we will have not one, but two, live bands playing us long into the night to celebrate another great Leek rugby season, with the Awesome Twosome leading us off, followed by a set from The Merkins.

With the weather set fair, please make the trip to Eccleshall or Altrad Park to cheer on the lads one last time this league season. As we are expecting a large home crowd, please share lifts, use taxis or walk in where possible. If driving, please respect our neighbours and park responsibly. Come on you blue boys!
