Former Ossett Town and Guiseley manager Paul Lines has been named as the new boss of Yorkshire Amateur.

He was chosen from a shortlist of six by the Bracken Edge club to succeed Graham Hodder who stepped down last month.

He will be assisted by Steve Milner and the pair will be meeting with the squad soon as the KoolSport NCEL Division One side prepares for the new season.

The club say the quality of all the applicants was excellent and want to thank those who were unsuccessful for their interest.
