thats wrong although the coach at lock lane was former cas player jason flowers whos son ethan left lock lane to join the panthers who are and always have been coached since u8s by jamie benn who is also the first team coach at cas panthers,whether jamie is getting help from jason i dont know has he has a massive workload at the club,onething for sure is they seem to be putting a very decent team together going by their much improved results.

I've just come back from a meeting where we have discussed the situation about a lad at our club, (not our year) how he had an injury to his leg, the cut as you can see in the picture below (which has been down scaled as I don't what the full size one on) was a very nasty cut, the lad had also three days in hospital due to an infection.
The incident was caused by blade football/rugby boots and we have decided to not use these type of boots at our age.
Now I don't want to scare monger, but I do want you to as parents be aware of your children's boots, kids tend not to bother taking any care into maintenance never mind clean them, one of the worst is walking on tarmac/concrete which can lead to sharp edges on studs and blades,

one thing that tends to get over looked is the inspection at the start of the game, which we intend to make sure that it is checked for the safety of our as well as you kids on the pitch, so if you come across a situation where a player has poor quality boots that could cause injury please remember the photo of this lads leg.

I would like to add this is to warn readers on this forum who have children playing as do, and its not in anyway just post a gross picture,

If the forum mods have any problem with photo please remove it, but I thought as a parent of a lad that plays I would of like to be informed.

you better beware with that avatar pic...mr brown might get you...

Yorkshire Juniors take tough stance Added 2nd Dec 2008

Yorkshire Juniors manament are becoming increasingly concerned with the unprecendented rise in the number of cases that are coming to their disciplinary meetings this season.

And the league chiefs have warned that they will continue to dish out the heavy fines - or worse - in an attempt to stamp out the worringly high volume of cases that appear before them.

A spokesman for the giant Junior league warned that the management will not tolerate the rise in rule breaking and hinted that, if the current rise continued, it would only be a matter of time until we would be forced to impose much tougher sanctions.

The spokesman went on to say that they were having to organise extra disciplinary hearings as the number of cases was around five times the amount that they were used to dealing with, adding that the disciplinary meetings were begining to disrupt the running of the league and stated,
"It's time now for the unruly element - which is in the minority - to start acting responsibly and act in a proper manner in order for the league management to concentrate fully on their primary duty which is, to supply fixtures for children of ages 6 to 15 year old. We fully support and impliment the RFL RESPECT programme and would expect our member clubs to do so."

The spokesman continued, "The majority of the clubs are well behaved and act responsibly, we as a league management just hope that clubs are not sucked in to this worrying trend of ill discipline.

Just to add to this i am under 8s coach at townville and also ref some of the older ages the things you see from some (and only some) parents is staggering and really should be stamped out now , It is the responsibility of the Home liason officer to ban these thugs from the touchline we need to start getting tougher on them ..

Finally after nearly 4 months we have managed to win another game in division two of the Yorkshire League.



I was beggining to think we would'nt win again all bloody year, now for one of the big ones, away at local rivals Brotherton.

Come on you Bears!!

Thanks Marshman, and yes I know, thought I had posted it on the amateur thread but got it wrong, figured one of the kondly mods would sort it for me!

No probs mate!



Least it wasn't Di who had to clean up after you, she can be a right nasty piece of work that lass, she wouldn't have been so nice!

cutsyke v lock lane A tonight

Where is the game being played????????? And a kick off time would be helpful as well.

You Panthers lot can't get knack all reet.

please keep up old boy PANTHERS ? see you on facebook !

Well done to everyone at Cas Panthers for putting on a great tournament today and well done every side that played in exhausting conditions.

In the under 8's age group, a special well done to Lock Lane, Townville Tigers (Easts and Wests) and Castleford Panthers for making the semi finals after a long long day. Townville Easts were beaten by Cas Panthers and Townville Wests beat Lock Lane (after extra time) and then Panthers won the final. Well done to every kid involved today! Well done to Panthers for winning and a big well done to our two Townville teams for doing so well.

Not sure how all the other age groups went on, but also let's hope the Townville player badly injured in the 10's (i think it was) is ok and not as bad as it looked.

echo what you say about the lad from the u10s first reports are that he isnt has badly hurt has first appeared,in the u10s lock lane were the winners beating knottingley in the final.

in the u9s it was cas panthers who came out on top after going all tournamant without conceding a single try which proves defences do win games,full credit to the other teams involved beaten finalists lock lane,stanley rangers,heworth and normanton knights who played two divisions above their weight but still gave a great account of themselves.

overall a fantastic day and im out on my feet but the good news is we get to do it all again next week.

Tell me about it. God knows how those kids are feeling because they played all day, Townville and Panthers u8's played 8 games, Jeez!



The point you made about teams playing against sides higher in the league. Our Townville teams did just that also, we're two leagues lower, and it is the first time they've really had to play top opposition (in Panthers and Lock Lane) in serious games so we're dead proud in what they achieved today. Two sides in the semis and one pipped in the final by a great side. Good to see the talent on show from the three local sides!

Update on the injured player is that it was a muscle spasm and has recovered now




Again thanks to Panthers esp the the guy who looked after Brad when he got injured !!
See you all at Lock Lane Sunday

Aye, good to hear it wasn't as bad as some of the rumours doing the rounds at the time.

Stanley Rangers under 15s

Congratulations on wining the 9 a side rugby tournament at Eastmoor on sunday, well done.
