Rob and Liam McDermott start for 1s and 2s as new season gets under way

The McDermott brothers Rob and Liam return to the starting lineups for the first games of the season for Leek 1s and 2s.

Skipper Joe Newton-Taylor will lead our 1st XV into battle against Manchester with 8-man Joe Gorman and flanker Brennig Hughes returning to the pack. Noah Reaney continues at 10 and will no doubt benefit from Rob's presence at inside centre. There is a league debut for flyer Josh Cartlidge on the wing and another off the bench for newcomer Josh Ballance.

For the 2s, coaches Chris Mudd and Steve Fryer name a side with plenty of experience. Skipper Andy Thompson will lead from the base of the scrum, and in Ollie Drew and Liam McDermott they have a reliable half back pairing who will look to release their backs.

Both games kick off at 3pm. Please come along and cheer on the boys in their first outings tomorrow.
