Very good game, some good skills and passed off quietly.

Rangers won 22-16 i think, Snowies lad bagged a double and looked dangerous every tim h got ball in hand.

that he did and bagged man of the match too, but it was the whole team that played their part,
thanks for taking time out to come and watch, your luke is an handful bless him

I hope he has dried out, wellies next time mum

welcome again anytime

what was destined to be a bitter derby actually turned into one of the best equal games this season, talking to one of their parents we both understand that we can not continue squabbling over what is a mans game that is played by kids at this level, for all our aspirations for the kids they must enjoy the game and be disciplined too or we have no game, a credit to both sides

going to be a bitter cold night -3 degs mutley wrap up tomorrow and good luck and keep that unbeaten run going

He is a credit to you, i can see some coaches wanting to move him to the second row but i hope he stays in the centre at least till he physically develops, there is a lack of tall centres as they seem to be thrown into the pack once they hit 6" for some reason, regardless of there skill level, which boils my blood.

good result for you snowie,im relly pleased the lad has done alright again keep his feet on the ground and you might have a good`en for the future.

i watched cas panthers u10s vs lock lane u10s which lock lane won 28-6 with your former coach`s nephew cameron smith scoring 4 tries for lane "nothing like tony he`s a big lump of a lad who`s pretty quick to boot".

tomorrow "cas panthers u9s" we take on fev lions at home we have 3 players missing through illness so its going to be tough if we can get the game on with a bad forecast for the morning.

That's great to hear mate! Hope he can keep it up.

unfortunatley the weather beat us this morning with the game having no chance with such an heavy frost.

Westgate Wolves back in action today with a close fought win at Dewsbury Moor. 16-22

My little lad picked up MOM for the first time this season

Congrats al

the front line went well today for westgate well done to Big Als lad.

well done little al

nice to hear he's got his finger out at last

ditto

im pretty glad its the last game next week before the break,we have made the decision to move training indoors to knottingley sports centre between now and march although it comes at a cost to me and the parents but its got to be better then training in all weather`s and in mud,hopefully it will help our ball handling no end having good conditions to train in and we can have some fun with it too.

stanley been indoors for a few weeks now , its hard for some aspects but you can still do a lot of fitness training. rumours a foot the lads will get moved up but to what group is still open to debate , for me 1 group is suffice

we are still training out doors with no complaints from the kids that its cold,
its been hard to see the ball at times and has been plenty plays that have had to be retaken because of it (dropped balls) but on sat two tries stuck and was down to the hard work the team has done in training

my car's cacked up tho

its a bit tough really i spoke with townville`s coach today and they are hoping to move up themselves,i know no team is keen to drop out of pool 1 has its been so competative with every team losing at least 3 games although fev lions and oulton raiders have only beat one another,lock lane too were hoping to move up though their form has dropped off a little in the last few weeks having spoken with their coach.maybe they need to go to 4 groups of ten instead of 5 groups of 8 id then make group 1.

cas panthers
eastmoor
crigglestone
drighlington
stanningley
heworth
stanley
lock lane
townville
shaw cross

but i have a feeling that they will split group1 into half has we have already played most teams twice already.

i honestly believe its a good age group this time i see a lot of u10s games and i reckon that a lot of the teams in group 1 of the u9s could hold their own against u10s top teams.

agree mate , but this is the millennium group

maybe in 2022 we might win the ashes

i hope your right im banking on one of my ex-players giving me an all expenses paid trip to go and watch it



onething that annoys me and a lot of other coaches is that they have taken away the county teams until u12s,i played for yorkshire has an u9 and to this day i still hold it has a top moment in my career and i was fortunate enough to get signed on,i beieve that their should be some recognition for our top players at any age group and even if its just regional training from the rfls coaching co-ordinaters its better than nothing.

May I congratulate you on having this thread.

I think it's great to see the forums being used to promote the game at grassroots level.

at this time of year its how is parents get our fix


I never had the support by my parents at that age, and feel that the chance I did had wasn't backed up with encouragement to succeed
