Quote: Everhopeful "With the RL season drawing to a close, does anyone fancy playing the winter season at Castleford Rugby Union Club? We have boys and girls teams from 6 year old to Colts (under 17). We welcome players of all abilities, the majority of our sides are made up of 50% pure union players and 50% players who play league and union. We would especially welcome girls of all ages, year 10 boys and a full year 9 team. Details below. Girls -- all ages, we have a strong presence in the Yorkshire Squad, we are also looking to send girls to the North of England trials. All ages and abilities welcome, training is on Wednesday night. Year 10 boys, we have a squad of 16, of the 16 we have 3 Central Yorkshire players, I player about to break into full Yorkshire honours, and 1 player who only plays union has signed terms for the Huddersfield Giants scholarship, we have great links to all the Pro Rl clubs and actively put players forward for RL scholarships and also District and county trials. We also have 4 players who have never played rugby before. We are looking to increase our squad to 22 players. Training is Tuesday and Wednesday, matches are Sunday at 11am, all abilities welcome Year 9 boys, we do not have a team at this age and are looking for a league team to Come on masse and play about 10 games, this would be ideal for a team to tick over in the winter, to stop kids drifting off to other sports or loosing them altogether. Other training information --- the colts (school years 11 and 12) and the seniors train on Tuesday and Thursday, we have 3 senior teams and are setting up a veterans team so any parents interested in a game let me know All other junior training is on a Wednesday night. We have a good spread of union and league coaches at the club, some are very highly qualified and have worked at England schoolboy and Superleague reserve/scholarship level. So the kids defintely benefit from playing and training at dual codes. We do welcome all players, from the ones who simply want to be part of a team and maybe didn't get game time at a RL or football club, to players who are signed on scholarships, or who have scholarship ambitions. Unlike RL in Union we don't have leagues until under 17's so the bulk of our games are friendlies, so no pressure for players who are new and don't understand the rules. We also have a great social. Family membership is £30 for the season, we don't at the moment pay subs ( except seniors) but some age groups ask that you join the 100 club a monthly raffle at £5 a month, if anyone can't afford the membership we will always try and help out. The season runs from now until the 28th May, so any of the RL players would be able to probably play between 12-18 games with us, depending on there need for breaks and also the winter weather situation. Good luck with the end of the season, if anyone wants details, contact numbers or any other info please post here or drop me a pm.'" Forgot to mention tomorrow ( Sunday 7th Oct) we have a special training session at 10.00am for any girls interested in having a go at rugby, free food and drink after, all welcome any ability Details here www.castlefordrufc.org/Team%20da ... 202012.pdf

Eastmoor Dragons Under 13’s (school year eight) are holding an open invitation training session on Tuesday 15th Janaury at 6.30. We welcome any new players to the sport, players who have been out of the game and want to get back into rugby and anybody who wishes to sample a training session at a different club.

If you, or you know of anybody, who wants to sample Junior Rugby please join us for a training session to experience the greatest game – no experience necessary, just a willingness to learn and have fun in the process.

This will be our first session back after the winter break so I’m sure there must be some lads wanting to put down their games controllers, get some fresh air & burn off the excess chocolate and Christmas pudding !!

Training nights are Tuesday and Thursday 6.30-7.30
