stanley 11s and 9s both hosted stanningley this weekend.
under 11s
after a upside down couple of weeks within the group and some kids only being back in training for a week a so the coach had his work cut and bravely moved many of the lads around the field and to his his credit seems to have hit a fine balance early on , last season this team gave us a couple of fair beatings this time round the lads went down 12-6 in a game which could of gone either way and a draw could be argued to of been a fair result . if the new coach gets a bit more backing and another assistant who knows what might happened.
a massive thank you to out wood and his assistant who as reveled his id on here so im not gonna name him for all the time effort energy and dedication they have given to my son and the team over the last 2 seasons . junior rugby realise totally on volunteers and without them the game is stuffed.
the 9s
after going down 1-0 and then 2-1 we took the lead 4-2 the game was even-Stevens until it got to 7-6 in stanley's favour
