Yorkshire RFUW
Congratulations are due to our girls who played for Yorkshire against Northumberland on 16 October 2011. Our U15 representatives were Megan Owens, Abbie Mayes and Liane Downes. Our U18 players were Kirsty Shires, Hannah Mayes and Rachael Lowe.
Girls Cluster event at Castleford RUFC on Sunday 23 October at 1 pm
We are hosting a Contact Skills session on Sunday. This will be run in conjunction with the RFU and we are hoping that a number of new players from local schools will attend. We are welcoming all players to come and have an enjoyable training session followed by matches to put the new skills into operation.
Girls tour proposal
This year we intend not only to enter the Keswick 7s competition but also to take the opportunity of expanding our horizons and making the weekend something special. We would like to stay over in Keswick for the whole weekend and participate in outward bound activities during the Saturday before the tournament on Sunday.
Recruitment
We are continuing our recruitment drive for girls from school years 6 and 7 to join our U13, years 8, 9 and 10 for our U15 and years 11, 12 and 13 for our U18 girls’ rugby squads.
We want not only absolute beginners but experienced players to come down to the club and everyone is encouraged to bring a friend, too.
