PENNINGTON are looking to strengthen their junior ranks as the first team stakes a claim for the Manchester League Division One title.

They cut Leigh Athletic's lead at the top of the table to just two points after beating their neighbours 3-0 at home on Saturday.

Their fourth victory of the season moved Pennington up into second place, and with two games in hand of Leigh they are in an ideal position to claim top spot.

With that in mind, the club are looking for players to add to their Under-7s, U11s and U13s sides.

The U7s need both boys and girl to bolster their squad, who play at Wigan Soccerdome on Sunday mornings.

For further information ring John on 07739 005013.

Pennington U11s are looking to recruit a goalkeeper for their team, which plays on Saturday mornings in the Bolton, Bury and District Junior Football League. Ring Tobias on 07703 850460.

The U13s are also looking for a goalkeeper to play in the Wigan League on Sundays. Ring Kevin on 07824 449207
