Coach Andy Appleyard dusted off his boots at the weekend to show his troops how it’s done, rolling back the years and pulling the strings from 10 in the 1s big cup win over Walsall and earning himself the Patera Engineering player of the match award. Andy is kindly sponsored by HotBod Teamwear.

Youngster Dylan Redgate had a performance to remember has he powered the 3s to a strong league win over Broughton Park that saw them move to the top of the table.

Tommy's two tries weren't quite enough for the Academy in their narrow loss at Stoke, but earned him the Wedgewood Steel Buildings player of the match.

Great work gents!
