  • Schools Rugby League Newsletter
    Schools Rugby League Newsletter Message from the ESRL chairman 2012 has once again been a year of change in national school sports and here at the RFL we have seen some significant changes in the way schools Rugby League is now administered. In October 2011 English Schools Rugby League successfully transitioned into the RFL. The new ESRL board functions as a subcommittee of the RFL Community Board and provides advice and guidance on the development of Rugby League within Schools. The board consists of: David Gent ESRL Chairman, RFL Ian Szwandt RFL Community Board Member Ray Unsworth Board Member Steve Boothroyd Primary Schools Representative George Panayiotou Secondary Schools, North Representative John Griffin Secondary Schools, North Representative Alsion Ward Secondary Schools, Midlands & Girls Representative Tony Fretwell Teachers Rugby League Representative John Kear Professional Clubs Representative The ESRL board continually looks to recruit new members onto the board which will help the development of Schools Rugby League, at present the board is in the process of recruiting a North East and South representative. The RFL’s flagship competition Carnegie Champion Schools remains the largest Rugby League tournament in the world and continues to expand year on year introducing more and more students to competitive sport. This year saw some excellent Rugby League finals played at Odsal and Wembley stadium. Going into the new season I wish all the school teams taking part in ESRL Rugby League competitions the very best of luck and thank you for your time and effort in the coming months. Once again I am confident that ESRL will have another record year with teams taking part in competitions and no doubt ESRL will be leading the way for competitive school sports.

  • Wales Rugby League 2013 Annual Report 2
    1 WALES RUGBY LEAGUE 2013 ANNUAL REPORT Period April 2013-March 2014 WELCOME FROM WRL CHAIRMAN Brian Juliff Hello and welcome to our 2013 Annual Review. The cover picture is from the Rugby League World Cup at the Millennium Stadium and highlights the exhilaration and pride of representing your country at the highest level of International Rugby League by a player born, bred and developed through the ‘Wales Rugby League Pathway’. In terms of performance, the North Wales Crusaders led the way with promotion to Championship 1 which was a huge success for Rugby League in Wales and led to some ground breaking community work being done in the region, which in turn will strengthen the foundations for the game to flourish. It was a pleasure to witness the passion of the Crusaders travelling band of supporters when they defeated London Skolars at New River Stadium, White Hart Lane, to secure their right to promotion. The board of directors at the Crusaders enter the new season under no illusions as to the enormity of the task of surviving in Championship 1. Clearly investment in the squad will be necessary to push on and the club will be keen to attract new partners/sponsors to enhance their wonderfully vociferous and very popular group of fans. North Wales Crusaders have also set up a Charitable Foundation in the region which supports the growth of disabled sport in the area and have expanded their community portfolio by launching a new wheelchair rugby league club team. South Wales Scorpions are on a slightly different trajectory, of course, with the focus on the pathway from our South Wales Academy to Senior Rugby League for our emerging Welsh talent and this team will grow steadily stronger over the next few years.

  • The Football Association Challenge the Cup Final
    The Football Association Challenge The Cup Final Cup Final Facts • The match is widely known as just the Cup Final. • It is the last match in the Football Association (FA) Challenge Cup. • It has about 86 000 spectators and millions of TV viewers. • The trophy (winner’s cup) is only on loan to the winning side. • It is the oldest cup competition in the world, first played in the 1871 - 72 season. Who Can Enter? The Challenge Cup competition is open to any club in the top ten levels of the English Football League. Once clubs have registered to play, the tournament is organised into 12 randomly drawn rounds, followed by the semi-finals and finals. The higher ranked teams join the competition in later rounds when some of the lower ranked teams have been knocked out. What Do the Winners Receive? The winners of the final match receive the Football Association Cup, the FA Cup. It comes in three parts; the base, the cup and a lid. Over the years, there have been two designs of trophy and five cups have been made. The first cup, known as the ‘little tin idol’, was stolen in 1895 and never returned. An exact replica was made and used until 1910. From 1911, a new design was made. In 1992, another copy was made as the cup was wearing out from being handled, and another replacement was made in 2014. The cup is presented at the end of the match, giving the engraver just five minutes to engrave the winning team on the silver band on the base.

This was at a time when the suburbs of London were expanding and investors and entrepreneurs recognised the opportunities for housing and other related developments. In 1880 in an attempt to encourage population growth, the Metropolitan Railway Company extended its line from central London to Wembley Park and Harrow. The chairman of the company Sir Edward Watkin, aware of the potential of the area, purchased 280 acres of land near the station and so began his vision of a major tourist attraction.
