With near perfect running conditions,…
The Blue and Golds progressed to second round of the Council Cup and were good value for their win which could have been by a much bigger margin.

Beverley ARLC were again beaten at the Beverley Leisure Centre by Myton Warriors ARLC in front of a big crowd. The visitors who have moved down a league capitalised or Beverley’s mistakes and made sure they took advantage of them. Coach Richard Shaw however should be pleased with the attitude of his players who never gave up and were rewarded late on when in-form Louis Hubbard crossed the Warriors’ line…
In a game of two halves the Blue and Golds claimed both points in a bruising encounter at the Roy Waudby Complex last Saturday. The early exchanges were brutal with big hits aplenty.
