Leeds Independent prevailed in their epic Leeds & District District Cup semi-final with Rothwell Juniors Reserves.

The sides were deadlocked - 5-5 - at the end of regulation time and needed a penalty shootout to separate them.

In the West Riding County Trophy, East End Park WMC Reserves had fewer problems at Lower Hopton where they triumphed 2-0 to secure safe passage into the next round.
