We have played three times recently, sharing the honours in January 5 ROCHDALE W Liverpool St. Helens L Moore D MACCLESFIELD L 2010-11 and winning our last meeting with a 5-29 win at Kirkby in September. That win hid the fact that 12 Liverpool St. H L LYMM W MARPLE Whitchurch 19 KIRKBY L’DALE P Birkenhead Park Bowdon they had a very spirited side that never gave up, with Wilmslow having to do a lot of defending.

With regards to Wilmslow, after the coaching reorganisation over Christmas and following an 16 Sale LIVERPOOL ST.

This, plus a Raging Bull Senior Colts League : Division A Junior Colts League : Division B welcome return from injury of several players, enabled them to put on an impressive performance against nd Seniors Juniors Seniors Juniors Lymm. The 3rds also with some new players had a big win to keep their 2 place in the league and the 4ths in a high scoring game at Whitchurch had too much of a porous defence in losing and slipping back to 5th .

  • Hampstead and Westminster Hockey Club Newsletter August 2017 Keeping Vice Presidents and Friends in the Know
    Hampstead and Westminster Hockey Club Newsletter August 2017 Keeping Vice Presidents and Friends in the know Welcome This is the twentieth Newsletter of its form to introduce readers to a new season with much to look forward to after a very successful past season. The significant news of the close season is the move away from Paddington Sports Club and securing alternative accommodation for post-match entertainment. Perhaps more significant has been the growth of the Junior Section under the administration of Alex Smart, to the extent that in numbers it now exceeds the senior Club. Our National League teams have been busy introducing new players, including current and immediate past internationals, to boost the determination for improvement in League success. These aspects are covered in greater detail below. With regret In August the Club learned of the untimely death of Robin Francis, regrettably in unexplained circumstances that sadly will give rise to an inquest later in the year. Robin was well-known to those members who played in the Tivoli Road days in Crouch End, where he was, amongst other things, the captain of the 4th XI, eager player and fund raiser. He offered his assistance in the early days of the revival of the Junior Section under Nick Coleman and Richard Chapman. He always gave a warm welcome to newcomers at the Hornsey Club and made them feel accepted. After the move to Paddington, Robin was often seen assisting Joe and Tess McAvoy at the Carlton Tavern and assisting the Club in several ways, including the construction of a much-needed store for goalkeeping kit.

  • Adult Future Competition Review Most Will Recall That There Have Been A
    Adult Future Competition Review Most will recall that there have been a couple of attempts by RFU in recent years to restructure the league pyramid primarily in response to the perceived threats/pressures of: 1. Player welfare – 30 games a season is argued to be too many, so the RFU favour leagues with maximum of 14 and maybe only 12 teams (26 or 22 matches per season) 2. Travel – particularly in the extremities (Cornwall, Cumbria, Kent, Northumberland) – which is said to put too great a burden on players and supporters and has been blamed for clubs dropping out of the league structure (Lancashire breakaway leagues) or making clubs unviable (St Ives). The RFU solution to this is greater regionalisation. Previous attempts to restructure the leagues have been blocked by clubs where the commercial requirements to maximise match day incomes (and related sponsorship etc flows) have led clubs to resist any cut in the number of league games. Wharfedale has consistently argued that we want to play against the best teams we can find and are prepared to travel anywhere, anytime, to play at the highest standard. We have consistently supported the status quo of national league rugby. As a financially sustainable club with good matchday incomes, solid sponsorship/member support and a controlled approach to player wages, we make money on match days so depend on the 15 home games to fund our wider activities. This is in contrast to those less sustainable clubs where player wages exceed incomes, so each match loses money. Despite widespread club opposition, RFU appear determined to force through change to smaller, more regional leagues with fewer games and less travel.
