Beverley 2nds 0 Malton 52 At first viewing the scoreline suggests a totally one sided contest, however for the best part of 50 mins Beverley competed well and played some good rugby, only a lack of composure, a couple of wrong options and several injuries meant that in the end Malton ran out convincing winners after taking their chances with clinical precision. From the outset Beverley back line took their…
Beverley RUFC entertain Middlesbrough RUFC at Beaver Park this Saturday in the National League 3 fixture (kick-off 2.15 p.m. In the corresponding fixture at Middlesbrough last October the Beavers lost narrowly 19-12 but felt very hard done by since they had the best of the game and but for a very questionable decision by an otherwise excellent referee, they would have won. They will clearly be out for revenge this…

Beverley RUFC are keeping their fingers crossed that the threatened return of the arctic weather does not materialise this weekend. They are scheduled to travel to Sheffield to face Sheffield Tigers in the National League 3 North fixture and should the game go ahead it will be their first taste of competitive rugby for 6 weeks. Beverley RUFC are just 7 points behind the Tigers, and have a game in…
Beverley RUFC welcome Rochdale RFC to Beaver Park this Saturday for their first ever visit. Lying just below the Beavers in National League 3, Rochdale, nevertheless have a similar record to the Beavers and last week recorded a useful win over West Hartlepool by a 30 point margin.

This was more like it. Although they went down narrowly to high flying Middlesbrough Beverley RUFC were almost back to their best and were desperately unlucky not to win this match. Not many teams get any change out of a visit to Acklam Park but Beverley RUFC played enough good rugby here to have won this game comfortably. The home side were seldom in the Beverley RUFC 22 whereas Beverley…
A disappointing afternoon all round, for Beverley at any rate. It was a lovely autumn day with perfect playing conditions but sadly we got very little flowing rugby and for eighty minutes almost nothing but relentless grinding away by the Tigers’ forwards at the Beverley line. For the whole game the Beverley pack was heavily outgunned and pushed all over the place but they gave it everything in defence and…
Darlington Mowden Park 36 Beverley 21 – After a disastrous first twenty minutes which left them trailing 21-5 Beverley steadily clawed their way back to 21-all only to succumb to two late tries and go down to a convincing defeat. It was a strange game. There was plenty of good rugby on view but for Beverley also plenty of frustration. Time and again when they should have kept the ball…
This was all very scrappy and pretty poor fare. Beverley somehow ended up winners although it was hard to see how. They were totally outplayed from start to finish by a side that was up for it and played all the decent rugby. It was all a far cry from the superb rugby Beverley were playing in the first two games of the season. They badly missed the directional play…
Chester 28 Beverley RFC 18 After two fine victories to get their season going this was a rather disappointing performance by Beverley who looked a shadow of the side that had played such sparkling rugby in their previous two games. They were not helped by early injuries to Junior Tupai and Goran Jelencic but they had a strangely pedestrian look about them and nearly all the good rugby came from…
