Another fantastic Sunday at St Edward’s Park as we welcomed old friends Braintree RUFC for their biennial tour.

Their under 9 to under 12 players enjoyed a brilliant weekend in the Peak District before finishing with friendly fixtures against Leek - great rugby, great spirit and lots of fun for everyone. Thanks to Braintree’s players, coaches and supporters for a fantastic morning.

U9s had an enjoyable morning facing the touring Braintree side with plenty of effort on show. Top Tacklers: Vinnie & Reeva (Dragons), Jordi & Cohen (Sharks). Special mentions to Henry C and Maisy for some powerful running.

U10 Titans played a great match and it's fantastic to see the squad growing again with a new player scoring an impressive hat-trick.

U11 Hawks enjoyed highly competitive and fun Zombies-themed games against Braintree with both teams enjoying a lively and spirited contest.

U12 Eagles played a brilliant festival-style match, SuperHeroes against Zombies, producing a fantastic morning of rugby for everyone involved.

Leek under 13s produced a superb first-half display against Eccleshall, running in six tries with excellent attacking rugby. Teams mixed for the second half in great rugby spirit, with Peter F standing out for his effort and impact throughout.

Under 8 Wolves had a productive morning focusing on skills and drills in training, continuing to build confidence and teamwork.

Another great weekend seeing our young Moorlanders proudly wearing the blue & white.
