Albion Sports moved to within four points of securing promotion from Division One after beating Ventus Yeadon Celtic 4-3.
Albion racked up a four-goal advantage with strikes from league debutant Jay Sobers (2), Mark Flanagan and Asif Hussain.
But they were given a fright as Terry Hargreaves, Alex Cusak and Adam Turner reduced the arrears for the home side and they were hanging on desperately at the end.
Tyersal, who have played two games fewer than Albion, remain three points adrift after winning 3-1 at Keighley Shamrocks, with Glynn Beale scoring twice and John Selby netting from the penalty spot. Joe Brady scored early in the game for Shamrocks.
Salts and Steeton both won to keep their slender hopes of promotion alive.
Salts, with strikes from Tom Wilson (2) and Wayne Walsh, beat Littletown 3-0, while Steeton - with a Sam Rooke hat-trick and two each from Adam Spencer and Joe Park - beat Eastmoor 7-1.
Bottom-placed South Bradford, who have the top three sides to play in their last four games, closed to within a point of already relegated Crag Road United and Keighley Shamrocks after winning their first game since before Christmas. Mathew McGrath (2) and Martin Flowers scored in the 3-1 win over Dudley Hill Rangers.
Hunsworth, who beat Wakefield City 3-1 in the League Cup semi-final on Easter Monday, failed to repeat the dosage when Wakefield won 2-1 and completed the league double over their Birkenshaw rivals.
Campion moved back into second place in the Premier Division after beating Kirkburton 3-2, the winning goal coming from Carl Trennery in the final minutes of the game.
Earlier, Curtis McMahon and Andy Benjamin had scored for Campion to cancel out goals from Gavin Armitage and Jordan Tindall.

The Division Two League Cup Final will be between Storthes Hall Reserves and Rawdon Old Boys, after the Old Boys beat Steeton Reserves 3-2 after extra-time in the semi-final at Rawdon. Mathew Fahy, with his second goal of the game, scored the all-important extra-time winner.
Bronte Wanderers moved closer to winning promotion from Division Two with a 6-1 success at Dynamoes - Dave Armitage and Jamie Rowell with a brace apiece contributing to Bronte's victory.
Tyersal Reserves, who beat Storthes Hall Reserve 3-1, and Kirkburton Reserves, who won 2-0 at Campion on Friday evening, are in second and third place.
Dudley Hill Athletics' 19-year-old striker Lewis Phillips scored not only his first goal for his club but all three goals as Athletic shared six goals with Morley Town.
West Horton, who have four fixtures to play in the next two weeks, could, providing they take maximum points, join Bronte in Division One next season.
