It's that time of year when all the amateur sides will be getting up and running again given we're all playing summer rugby this year. Quite a bit of positivity around at the minute with new teams compared with a few years ago.

Update on Bury Broncos here: files.pitchero.com/clubs/1029/Cl ... verall.pdf and we are looking for locals to play across all age groups...

Sure people from Eccles, Folly, Langworthy, Cadishead, Little Hulton and Irlam can post any news from their patch - and maybe even East Manchester, Mancunians and North Trafford can too!

I’ll speak from a Folly open age point of view.

We had a great season last year winning the NWML Division one title and gaining promotion the Premier Division. We also made it to the Grand Final unfortunately we got beat off Ulverston on Golden point even though we outscored them 5 tries to 3!! On the whole though it was an excellent season and for the first time in many years Salford now has representation in the top division of North West Amateur Rugby League.

As for next season I think it will be a good achievement to maintain a steady place in the Premier Division and let the young squad build. As for the second team, well we couldn’t raise one last season, but this year it’s been decided to enter one into the entry league so, if there’s anyone out there who fancies playing at a good standard or even if you are new to the sport, get yourself down to Folly – plenty of decent junior sides playing at a decent level as well.

2013 was a great year for Langworthy Reds. The club was voted nationally through loverugbyleague.com as “Club Idol” which was a competition run for community clubs to showcase their efforts to improve the facilities they have in by involving its member and to work together as a community club. Then the general public were able to cast their vote on who they felt were most deserving for the work done. “The Reds romped home with the competition” (The RFL words not ours) after we renovated the upstairs of the club on a budget of just £1000. A builder estimated had we got builders and other tradesmen in it would of cost us 10 times that amount. All entrants can be seen here: [urlhttp://loverugbyleague.com/club-idol/[/url

2014 is already shaping up to be an even better year. The club has added two new junior teams and now have teams at U7s, U8s, U9s, U10s, U11s, U12s, U14s, U15s and U18s as well as our cub section for children from 3 years old to 6 years old to come along and join in. On top of that our Open Age team have joined the North West summer leagues and we currently have over 20 women training with a view to joining the national ladies leagues during the year.

Off the pitch we are planning our next project to continue the renovation of our Oakwood Park base with a view to retaining our club idol crown.

As always we are more than welcoming to anyone who wants to get involved with rugby even if not to play but to continue to help take the club forward off the pitch. If anyone is interested in playing then we have a team for pretty much anyone who wants to come along and try their hand at the game. You don’t need to have any experience so don’t let that put you off.
