At its recently held Annual General Meeting, Beverley RUFC Chairman Malcolm Cunningham reported on a very satisfactory season on the field for the club. The first XV, playing some very good rugby finished the season in a highly creditable 7th place in the league table, despite a quite horrendous run of injuries. Several key players spent a fair amount of time on the sidelines with fractured limbs and the bad…
It’s been a hellish month for stricken Beverley rugby star Craig Hancock – but the local lad is still smiling and full of optimism. Craig, 25, of Chestnut Drive, Beverley, suffered an horrific broken leg in the dying seconds of Beverley ARLFC’s Ray Speckman Cup Final victory over Cottingham Tigers last month. Two weeks spent in hospital, five operations, a skin graft and weeks of pain and discomfort have followed…

This was an extraordinary game of rugby. Littered equally with mistakes and champagne rugby from the Beavers it was nevertheless an exciting game with, eventually, the right outcome. As is normal with the Beavers, this last away game of the season is used as an occasion for the players to let their hair down, dress up in fancy dress and have a good night out on the way home. Unfortunately…
After various last minute drop outs, this was a very different looking Beverley RUFC team that took on Scunthorpe 4ths for the 3rd time this year. Without various key personnel, it was left to the remaining players to fill the voids. The game started in usual Beverley RUFC fashion, half hearted and without commitment. Scunthorpe made easy work of the new look Beverley RUFC pack and were dominant at almost…
Beverley RUFC travel to Merseyside on Saturday to take on West Park St. Helens in their final game of the season. Whilst the Beavers are comfortable in seventh place in the league table West Park are fighting a survival battle at the bottom and will surely be desperate for a win to maintain their slim chances of avoiding relegation. They are only eight points adrift of safety with a game…
Beverley RUFC came close to causing an upset in the 2nd round of the Yorkshire Cup. Beverley faced a tough test in Hull RUFC but started the game strongly taking the lead with penalty kick. Hull responded well and looked to be running away with the match. Beverley RUFC dug in and a good second half performance saw them score two twice bringing them within 3 points of Hull. Late…
Plenty of good rugby but overall a strange game. For Beverley RUFC it was a curate’s egg performance – good and bad in about equal measure. For twenty five minutes they played some cracking stuff, were leading 17-5, and looked as though they would romp away with it. Then unaccountably it all went wrong and after that, apart from the last ten minutes, all the good rugby came from Darlington…
This weekend’s visitors to Beaver Park for Beverley RUFC’s scheduled National League 3 fixture are Darlington Mowden Park. In the corresponding fixture at Darlington last October, the Beavers lost 21-36, but felt that the 15 point margin did not reflect the game. Only a 10 minute first half blast whilst Beverley regrouped after the loss of Goran Jelencic, allowed Darlington to score 14 points without reply. Beverley will be out…
Beverley RUFC rounded off their club’s fiftieth anniversary celebrations with a fine win in the spring sunshine at Beaver Park. It was hard and physical but always an enjoyable game to watch. From the early stages a victory for Beverley RUFC always looked probable but for half an hour they made heavy weather of it and at the interval all they had to show for their domination was a single…

Beverley RUFC face West Hartlepool in what is their first home game since 6 February and will be hoping to return to winning ways. West have been plagued by relegation worries all season and have languished in the bottom three for most of the season. The Beavers won the fixture in Hartlepool by 39 points to 5 back in early December and will be keen to repeat that performance on…
Beverley RUFC 2nds produced arguably their best performance of the season against a spirited Driffield side and in the process scored 55 points for the second week running. Looking at the score line you could have been forgiven for thinking the conditions were suited to fast open running rugby, however the game was very nearly a victim of the weather as constant rain had left the pitch with areas of…
Beverley paid the price for one dreadful lapse in defence to go down to a narrow defeat at league leaders Stockport. The wet conditions meant the game was fairly error-strewn and often scrappy, but it was exciting and enjoyable for all that. It was played throughout in a good spirit for which great credit is due to the refereeing of Simon Lazenby who kept it flowing with the minimum of…
