Both teams play

Saturday v Hensingham (under 11's at 1.00pm with 14's to follow)
Sunday v Kells Under 11's at 12.30 with 14's to follow)
Monday - off to the Willows to watch the nationals on the way back.

Kells under 14's ran Rylands close in the National quarters and have only lost one other match which was against Broughton in their cup final. They went unbeaten in the league aswell so this should be a real test!

Good Luck to everyone and see you around midday Saturday.

Looks like the lads have had a fantastic time on tour.

14's beat Hensingham. Think the scoreline was around 8 - 42.

and lost against Kells 24 - 22 after leading from virtually the 1st minute of the game to almost the last minute. With many refereeing decisions going against them!!! The lads have come a long way this season as this result proved.

11's ran in an 8 tries (think it was 8 tries) to nil victory over Hensingham and lost out to Kells by 1 try i believe in what was another close game.
