Report by Dave Christian:

Womens NC2 North (West) leaders, Vagabonds recorded their fourth win of the season and maintained their 100 per cent record, beating Macclesfield 40-26 at Ballafletcher.

Freya Crowe led the scorers for Vagas with a hat-trick of tries and there were also tries from Bliss Murtagh, Lauren Ellison, Maylyn Campbell, Greeba Taisia and Maisie Murray. 

Pending Sunday's results, Vagabonds' lead is now seven points, however other sides do have games in hand.

With a big night planned at Ballafletcher, 'Vagas' gave their supporters something to celebrate when they beat St Edwards Old Boys 24-15 in Counties 3 ADM Lancs/Cheshire. 

The win lifts Vagabonds into sixth place in the standings ahead of a trip to Oxton Parkonians next week.

Douglas take the honours against Kirkby Lonsdale 

Douglas beat Kirkby Lonsdale 29-7 at Port-e-Chee and climb up to seventh place in the Regional 2 North West standings and have a game in hand on some of their rivals.

Kudzai Chenda, Jonty Shimmin, Wes Nyman and Josh Campbell all crossed for tries earning Douglas a precious bonus point.

Matty Wood's boot added three conversions and a penalty.
