Stanley 9s entertain Lock Lane on sunday . Both teams took park in a thrilling game before the break with stanley taking the spoils and both teams have been promoted to the top league , last night the 9s got a taste of the top league and played shaw cross and crigg....the unbeaten run continues and to say a few of the bigger lads were missing they were very level with crigg and won by a large margin against shaw.

another fantastic battle between to hard , fast and fair sides .

result draw 22all

been a nice morning for it, how did steve go?

Did i see young Mutts in the 11 shirt friday night at BV?

yep you most certainly did , claims he got robbed and should of a try in each game . me as an unbiased dad agreed

split his lip open , its very sore

came off for 5 but went back on a little quite though for him but a good team effort again

not nice is a split lip, very brave of him to go back on

a day of draws has our game finished heworth u9s 20 cas panthers u9s 20.

a good work out for us and nice to get a game under our belts.

ive just heared tonight that the rfl have stepped in and decided to let the u9s coaches vote on what rules they will play for the remainder of the season,and after 19 teams submitted their vote it favoured playing to mod rules for the rest of the season although next years u9s will start and finish playing mini league rules.

sounds like a u turn in the right direction, listening to the majority for a change

back to the second half of the season for the stanley rangers under 11s we have our first tough match of group one, playing stanningley from what I've been told haven't lost in two years, so will the boys be ready to make that extra effort that has helped them back into the top group.

kick off is 11-30 sat morn

stanley rangers under 11s put up a spirited performance today losing 16-4 to stanningley, was a closer game than expected

going with normy knights under 14s away at rylands, warrington.

good luck to normy

Under 9s and 8s back underway today for Stanley

8s Away at Hunslet with the newly promoted 9s entertaining Stanningley at Ferry Lane 11:30 . Stanley have moved up 2 groups and today will surly test the unbeaten run.

for the second time in a fortnight cas panthers u9s and heworth u9s locked horns and came up with the same result a draw.

it finished 38-38 despite the panthers building up a 32-16 lead,but with heworth only having 8 players the panthers were forced into making subs to give every player a run including two debutants and this was the telling factor has heworth edged in front before a late try and goal got the panthers a deserved draw after out scoring their opponants 8 tries to 7.

stanley under 8s had a tricky assignment at hunslet and were beaten 6-1ish .

the under 9s hosted stanningley in their first top flight game and after a nip n tuck and bruising encounter came away with a 18-10 victory scoring the crucial try with the last play of the match.

you must have a good team to beat stanningley thats an impressive result for you.

the lads can hold there own but TBF stanningley could just of won it as easily as well.
I see what you mean about how close this group is.
great entertainment today in the 9s

it is a very close group of teams which all goes well for the future,there are some teams that are hell bent on winning and you can see in a few years time they will struggle because they have stuck with 8-9 players and not allowed other players into the group in fear of losing a few games which is a shame.

has ive said there are no easy games in this group and any team can beat another on the day,we have our derby next week against lock lane which will again be real hard game for us but one which we will look forward to.

we lost 20 points to 6, were winning 6-4 but a couple of things turned it their way, we were conceding a stone and half a man up front and it told in the end but we played quite well and we give it our best shot

stanley under 11s took a pounding today losing 34 -0, heads fell down and wasn't easy to watch mentally now they have to pick them selves up and understand they have to keep fighting on

So they did not play Warrington then



All part of the learning curve and will make them better players.

they played just like warrington tho
