MALVERN Rangers are celebrating having gained promotion to division one of the West Midlands Football League.

Their main sponsors, the Cross Keys, have also won the league's hospitality award.

Rangers finished in third place in division two last season and the Cross Keys won their award ahead of the other 53 clubs in the three divisions of the West Midlands League.

Secretary Brian Burge said: "The crowning glory to what has been a successful season was at the league's presentation evening at the Bescott Stadium, Walsall, when Rangers, or more pertinently Ann and Reg of the Cross Keys, won the Bob Juggins Hospitality Award.

"This being in recognition of the superb buffets provided after Rangers' home fixtures."

Landlady Ann Holden said: "We are absolutely delighted. It was a shock to win out of so many teams but a very nice accolade."
