| On Saturday July 3rd at The Willows, the first ever Great Britain Teachers RL side, coached by Stuart Wilkinson and captained by Mick Cassidy, will take on the British Asian Rugby Association, coached by former Featherstone and England winger Ikram Butt. The game kicks off at 3.00pm
The game is the first GB game for the teachers who have established county sides since forming in the spring. The purpose is to promote RL in schools by providing an opportunity for teachers to progress in RL, enjoy it and hopefully start or increase their RL delivery in schools. The innitiative is based from Stretford High School, who the Salford Reds have helped so much. The game hopes to raise awareness and promote participation of all ethnic groups in RL. You can find the TRLA on facebook by searching "Teachers Rugby League"
Admission will be £2.00 for adults and Free for Under 16's and Senior Citizens. But as a thank you to Salford Reds for all they are doing, the Teachers RL Association would like to invite all Salford Season ticket holders. Simply show your season ticket at the turnstyle to gain admission.
Hope to see you there.

| Great Britain Teachers Coach Stuart Wilkinson has named a 22 man squad to face the British Asian Rugby Association at The Willows Salford KO 12pm on Saturday July 3rd.
The match was moved to 12pm to avoid the possibility of the England quarter final but has been kept the same to avoid confusion.
The match will be called the UNICEF challenge. As the game brings together those that teach children and the international element of our society if was felt a fitting charity to support. Uniquely, the teams will stand amongst each other for the national anthem in a show of the unity in British society.
Admission is £2 for adults and Free for U16s and Senior Citizens. Turnstyles open at 10.30am when players are expected to meet.
The squad is; Andrew Beattie, Matt Giblin, Paul Lorenzen, Phil Arkell, Dave Holcroft, Paul Leighton, Andrew Johnson, Paul McDowell, Mark Brennan, Scott Low, Charlie Woan, Ian Critchley, Steve Woodburn, Tom Wild, Craig Hamilton, Tony Fretwell, Neil Bourke, Mick Cassidy (Capt), Glen Kaighan, Tom Vickers, Mark Burns, Tom Lever.

| If any of your squad has a bad game do they have to write out 'I must learn how to play Rugby League a little bit better in future' 100 times?

| Great Britain Teachers crowned an excellent opening program of games with a thrilling comeback to beat the British Asian Rugby Association 24-14 in the clash at The Willows, Salford.
A healthy crowd saw the BARA side take the lead after a series of devastating runs from Swinton’s Saqib Murtaza created the space for stand off Junaid Malik to open up the teachers outfit. The Teachers hit back when Fleetwood Sports Colleges’ Steve Woodburn popped a nice offload out for hooker, and Bankfield High School PE teacher Neil Bourke to dive over. That was to be it though for the teachers as BARA scored again, Malik punishing errors from GB teachers with a cute kicking game and linking with superb efforts from centre Imad Nazir. At 14-6 to BARA, the next score was critical after the break and it came from veteran RL legend Mick Cassidy of the GB teachers. Cassidy now teaches at Wigan and Leigh College and it was his effort from short range that lifted the teachers to raise their game.
Workington full back Andrew Beattie capped a fine, man of the match performance with a try on 66 minutes which, with goal efforts from Charlie Woan and Neil Bourke, seeing the teachers take the lead 18-14. It was a lead they did not surrender, though the constant efforts of the huge BARA pack, lead superbly by Saqib Murtaza, Massadiq Khan and Andrew Ali ensured the teachers had to come up with a massive defensive effort to keep them out. The win was sealed on 76 minutes when Neil Bourke produced a carbon copy of his first after an offload from Cumbria prop Craig Hamilton. Hamilton added two goals to see Great Britain Teachers take the memorable debut win 24-14.
Coach, Stuart Wilkinson was clearly buzzing at the win given the new side had never played together before. “These lads are a credit to the game, the way they commit so much to playing and yet also deliver in the schools, the game owes them a lot.” BARA Coach Ikram Butt was in no way downhearted. “We are delighted. I’ts been a great game and is very important to us to create links with schools to spread the message that all sections of our society can be part of our great game. The afternoon was a huge success.”
GREAT BRITAIN TEACHERS; Andrew Beattie, Matt Giblin, Paul Lorenzen, Phil Arkell, Dave Holcroft, Paul Leighton, Matt Johnson, Paul McDowell, Mark Brennan, Scott Low, Charlie Woan, Ian Critchley, Steve Woodburn, Tom Wild, Craig Hamilton, Tony Fretwell, Neil Bourke, Maick Cassidy, Glen Kaighan, Tom Vickers, Mark Burns
