I stand to be corrected but has it not become traditional that Miners and Easts 12's going up to Under 13's always play for the Fred Hilton Trophy prior to the Super Cup final or must they be invited accordingly?
I know my lad played and won in 2007
I am sure If I was the coach at East I would have been enquiring myself knowing when the event usually takes place and wanting to secure a competitive pre season friendly with the opportunity of a bit of silverware at the end of it.
