Yep seth listen/read to ft .

Crigglestone have found themselves in this conflict with BARLA since competition came in effect. Its silly boys and girls in cheap suits trying to be top dog YJL v BARLA v ( WAKEFIELD RL ) in criggs case v RFL . with everyone forgetting the kid's.

IMHO the whole junior game in the country GBR should be governed by 1 body with 1 set of rules so when a team from Dewsbury plays one from Wakefield the referee is sure of the rules and the players and coaches know how to play to them,

we are yet again sending fear and threatening teams for achieving something. Shame on the person who as spoken to Oulton in this manner.

So this is the advice given;

"There is no dispensation for the BARLA cup I'm afraid, so you will need to use your postponement for the first fixture.

If you get through to the next round and decide to play in the BARLA cup instead of your league match, then you will need to forfeit your league fixture 18-0."

What a complete joke devoid of any common sense!

It's an absolute joke isn't it? Daft old blokes in the back rooms of the favoured few clubs, making decisions that have everything to do with their own agendas and nothing at all to do with getting kids out on the park enjoying themselves.

The junior game continues to thrive *despite* the best efforts of the people in charge.

Any thoughts from those still in BARLA cup about the 3rd round clashing with first league match? Only suggestion would be using only postponement, though not keen to do that, and the bigger issue would come if we get past 3rd round with no postponements left.

I have heard this evening that The RFL have told YJARL that they are to allow teams to play BARLA cup games without any penalty, so this information might not be current any longer

Hope you're right. Perhaps they could also see their way clear to publishing the final league tables and the first league fixture with a week and a half to go, see NWC details have been up since jan!

Looking at the fixtures seems common sense has prevailed.

Also see West Hull are now in YJL and Newsome have gone back into div 2. - Under 14s

My word,that is shaping up to be one hell of a strong divison.

Your not kidding about the group. I've seen a lot of junior rugby over the years and I don't think I've ever seen so many good teams in one age group.

Hull derby in the first round of matches too
Should be a great season this year and hopefully a competitive one with more than 1 or 2 teams in for the title
