Beverley were given a good going over and deservedly went down to their heaviest defeat of the season. It was not a very good performance. In fact, let’s be honest here, it was a shambles. It is a long time since we have seen Beverley play as poorly as this, even if they did eventually emerge with a four try bonus point. Rossendale were clearly up for it and they…
This Saturday’s visitors to Beaver Park are Rossendale RFC who travel from Lancashire to take on Beverley in the National League 3(North) fixture. Lying just one place below the Beavers in the league table, Rossendale are a big, physical side and Beverley need a win to take them away from the foot of the table. Coach James McKay said earlier this week, “Each of our four defeats this season have…
Beverley 2nd’s came into this game full of confidence after last week’s win over Goole , they got off to the perfect start with two early tries. The Hullensian Hawks were not going to give up just yet, and hit back with two tries of their own and then had the nerve to take the lead 17-14. But with minutes to spare Beverley restored their lead to make the half…
Another tight encounter for Beverley and yet another grandstand finish. They were never more than a single score behind and were desperately unlucky not to snatch victory in the frantic final minutes. Chester, top of the table with five wins out of five and averaging over thirty points a game, might have been looking for an easy ride here. Not only did they ultimately have to rely on the boot…
You couldn’t ask for better than this. Two teams going flat out with non-stop attacking rugby gave us a great match. Seven tries and most of them pretty good ones. Beverley have been threatening all season to click into shape and today it all came together with a fine performance that brought them a well deserved victory. With only one previous defeat and the best defensive record in the league…
With one of the strongest sides Beverley 2nds have managed to field for quite some time, the outcome of their match against an obviously young and inexperienced Goole team, looked pretty obvious. The game had only just started before Beverley had their 1st score on the board. Some excellent forward pressure and the ball was turned over far too easily and a simple try was scored. Beverley were clearly showing…
Saturday sees Beverley RUFC entertaining Sandal in what is sure to be yet another tough encounter. Having, for the third week in succession, allowed their opponents to build up an apparently unassailable lead with only 15 or 20 minutes to go last weekend at Darlington Mowden Park, the Beavers suddenly started to play as we know they can and, given another 5 minutes would probably have won all three games….
So near and yet so far. For the second week running Beverley were down and out and then came back superbly to get to within a single score of victory. In the end they probably lost this one because they gave away too many soft scores in the middle period, principally through poor tackling and wayward kicking out of defence. Once again they completely dominated the first quarter of an…
Beverley RUFC 2nd XV picked up a win this Saturday, beating a strong Bridlington side at Beaver Park. Beverley came from behind at half-time to win the game 27 points to 10.

Beverley RUFC travel to the North East on Saturday to face Darlington Mowden Park in their National League 3(North) fixture, kick off 3 p.m. They will be looking to pick up a win to overcome the disappointment of last week’s narrow defeat by Stockport. Both the Beavers and Stockport played some cracking rugby in a highly entertaining game and it has to be said that, had Beverley started with the…
The Beverley Bandits faced Hornsea at Beaver Park in a game that turned into very one sided contest. The Bandits came out as winners scoring a string of tries in game at times that got quite heated.

Plenty of cracking rugby but overall a rather strange game. With just over half the match gone Stockport led 24-3 and were running away with it. At the end they were hanging on and relieved to hear the final whistle. Stockport with three straight wins are without doubt the strongest side Beverley RUFC have met so far this season. They played with a power and composure that Beverley RUFC could…
Beverley RUFC 2nd XV won away beating local rivals Driffield 31 – 15. The seconds came from behind to win though due to the home side not able to field any props the scrums were uncontested meaning Beverley will not get any championship points.

Officials, players and sponsors of Beverley RUFC gathered at the KC Stadium for the Sportmans’ Dinner on Thursday. The night was compared by the witty Malcolm Lord. John Bentley, who has represented his country at the highest levels in both Rugby League and Rugby Union, was the Guest Speaker, and funny man Josh Daniels kept everyone entertained. It was also a chance to bid farewell to 2009/2010 Players Player Richard…
Beverley RUFC entertain unbeaten Stockport on Saturday at Beaver Park in a National League 3 (North) fixture (Kick off 3 p.m.). Games between these two sides are invariably close, hard fought affairs and Saturday is unlikely to prove to be any different. Although the Beavers lost narrowly at Lymm last weekend, they had a much depleted side and, despite the replacements all playing very well, the side’s lack of cohesion…
Two evenly matched sides and an exciting encounter at Crouchley Lane. It could have gone either way. Both clubs had got their season off to a good start with fine wins and both set out to build on it here by playing fast attacking rugby. Lymm with the advantage of the slope and blustery wind had the better of the first half. Afterwards Beverley RUFC clawed their way back and…
Beverley RUFC face another trip into the unknown this Saturday, when they travel to newly promoted Lancashire Club Lymm. Lymm started their first season in National 3 North with a 27 – 26 home win over Middlesborough last weekend and will be in a confident move. Beverley RUFC will be encouraged by a fine all round team performance in their win over Waterloo last week but will be hampered by…
Beverley 2nd XV got back into action with a 14 – 0 victory over Sarborough. Two tries including one from new signing Adam Mclatchie, both tries were converted by Ian Archilbald to give the seconds a winning start at Beaver Park.
