2. Tom Povey

After a long but ultimately rewarding campaign the under 13s played their last game of the season at Green Lane on Sunday. Perhaps it was tiredness creeping in or the thought of a curry later on in the day at the presentation ceremony but whatever it was the lads saved their worst display of the […]
The Blacksticks Blue Lancashire Junior Challenge Cup Final match between Ormskirk U16 and Preston Grasshoppers U16 was unable to be played last Sunday at Sefton RUFC because the playing surface of the pitch had become dangerous owing to torrential rain.
