After yet another postponed game last Saturday, Beverley RUFC hope to return to action this weekend with a home fixture against Birkenhead Park (kick off 3 p.m.). Lying 5th in the league table, BHP are invariably a difficult side to beat and the Beavers will need to be at their best to gain any reward on Saturday. The one benefit of the layoff is that most of the niggling injuries…
Having gained a valuable win away at bottom club Rochdale last weekend, Beverley are at home on Saturday as third from bottom Middlesbrough visit Beaver Park. This is another important game which the Beavers need to win to maintain their climb out of the danger zone. If they can re-discover the form that they were displaying prior to their Billingham nightmare, there is no reason why they should not do…
Not much vintage rugby here. Beverley won in the end but they made hard work of it. Rochdale are rooted at the foot of the table and almost certainly facing relegation but they never gave this one up and they might easily have won. Only when David Worrall burst through for a try ten minutes from time could Beverley finally breathe easily. Beverley got the four league points and their…

The Beverley Bandits were in action against a Scunthorpe XV at Beaver Park, but lost 12-10. The first half was scoreless, and the Bandits received a talking to by their skipper about giving away too many silly penalties. After the restart Phil Cromie kicked a penalty for Beverley, but Scarborough then scored a break away try which was converted. Beverley Bandits took the lead when Andy Ellis scored a try…
Beverley RUFC turned in yet another sterling performance last Saturday, when, having given second placed Bradford & Bingley a 12 point start at half time, they suddenly woke up and completely turned the game around in the second half and, only a last gasp penalty under the posts, cost them an heroic victory. It is most frustrating that they seem to always give these top teams a good start before…
A pulsating match and a thrilling finish. A Phil Dale penalty five minutes from time looked to have won it for Beverley but Bradford came back again at the very death to snatch victory with a last gasp penalty. For half the match Bradford gave Beverley RUFC the run-around with some superb back play and it looked like Beverley were in for a mauling as the visitors cruised to an…
Beverley RUFC face stiff opposition on Saturday at Beaver Park (kick-off 2.15 p.m.), when the visitors are second placed Bradford & Bingley. In the corresponding fixture at Bradford last October the Beavers gave a good account of themselves against a very powerful side reinforced by several young Leeds Carnegie Academy players. Following their long trek to Rossendale last Saturday which proved to be a waste of time since the pitch…
Beverley RUFC travel over the Pennines this weekend to take on Rossendale in their National League 3(North) match. Having suffered their heaviest defeat in the home fixture earlier this season ( Beverley Vs Rossendale Match Pictures )when the Beavers allowed their bigger, more physical opponents to bully them out of their game, Beverley will be anxious to redress the balance on Saturday. Always a difficult place to go to with…
Beverley RUFC U16s came off the back of an excellent (but losing) performance at York last week and started off in similar vein against a big Castleford side. Almost with the first play of the game Beverley gained a penalty 10m from the Castleford line which was quickly taken to Ben Watson who crashed over for the first try. Beverley were playing into the wind and were relying on their…
Beverley RUFC 2nd XV proved too strong for Driffield 3rd’s as they easily beat them at Beaver Park. Ian Archibald scored three tries in a game that got heated at times with Beverley’s Jamie Gill at one point being grabbed round the throat.

Beverley RUFC will be keeping an anxious eye on the weather over the next few days in the hope that the forecasters are wrong and the prediction of more heavy snow and ice for Friday and the weekend will not materialise. They are due to visit table topping Stockport for the National 3 (North) fixture on Saturday, for their first action since mid November. They will be without first choice…
Beverley’s Rugby Players were finally able to show off their efforts for the Movember Moustache Challenge. A number of players took part in the event with the primary aim of raising awareness of cancer amongst men and raising some money for the Everyman Male Cancer Campaign along the way. The players have raised over £800 with donations still coming in. Many of the players sported big bushy moustaches while Phil…
Beverley RUFC are hoping that the weather improves sufficiently this week for their scheduled National League 3(North) game with Middlesbrough to take place, although listening to the weather forecast for the area leads one to believe already that it is likely to be a forlorn hope. Having had last weeks match at Billingham called off, the Beavers will be anxious to avoid a backlog of fixtures, as happened last year,…
Beverley RUFC travel to Teeside on Saturday to take on Billingham RFC in their National League 3 (North) Fixture. Billingham are struggling somewhat this season and currently lie second to bottom in the table, but the Beavers will be taking nothing for granted as it is evident that, on their day, any team can beat any other in this league, such is the closeness of the competition. Beverley will travel…
Beverley RUFC Under 13s have received new after match kit. The shirts have been jointly sponsored by Beverley businessmen Neil McKenzie of Meza9, the major mezzanine floor designer, manufacturer and installer, and Chris Thompson of SignEdge Ltd. Back’s coach David Price said; “We were looking for a kit sponsor and Neil & Chris came forward, it a great gesture and I would like to thank both of them personally and…
Only driving rain prevented this from being a real cracker. Fixtures between these two sides nearly always produce close hard fought encounters and this one promised to be no exception. In the end it proved to be Beverley’s day, fairly comfortably as it turned out. The game was played in a great spirit. Both sides gave it everything and made light of the conditions but Beverley were that bit quicker…
