Ormskirk RUFC

NORTHWICH LADIES 5 – 5 ORMSKIRK LADIES
With bats flitting between the three-quarters and badgers rooting around in the scrums the referee finally blew the whistle and allowed the teams to grope their way back through the gloom to the changing rooms. So a match scheduled to start at 2pm on a crisp autumnal afternoon finally […]

World rugby was rocked to its foundations on Sunday as Ormskirk Ladies achieved what many had thought was impossible – they won a line out. Grown men wept as lock Catherine “Satan” Nixon rose majestically into the […]

Ormskirk Ladies are quite glad that match reporter Sam Botfield was not present to witness the game after the night before, because he would have written something nasty - I’ll try to be nice………

The girls were unsurprisingly a little worse for wear early Sunday afternoon, after a few small […]

LEOS LADIES II 5 – 26 ORMSKIRK LADIES
Turning over last season’s third placed team in North 2 26 – 5 on their own patch should have been a cause for celebration for the newly promoted Ormskirk Ladies. But it wasn’t. Despite the comfortable margin the game finished with a sense […]

Boarding a suitably re-inforced bus Ormskirk Ladies began their new season with a bladder threatening trip to Blaydon.  It would have been nice to go with a proven front row, but regular prop / […]

Vagabonds 60
There are probably better ways to start a season than to play a friendly against Vagabonds.  With not much else to do in the Isle of Man other than launder money and scrape motorcyclists off bridges there is plenty of time left over for rugby training.  Vagabonds WRUFC had […]

This Sunday Ormskirk Ladies take on Isle of Man Vagabonds at Green Lane.  Kick off 1.30pm. 
The team need as much support as possible, as they are without six players who have been selected for Lancashire’s game away in Northumbria.   Congratulations to Emma Gander, Cath Nixon, Cara Pendleton, Claire Rylance, Jenny Leitch and Anna O’Malley from the […]

Dear All,
After the debacle of last season’s planned Presentation Night, and having discussed the issue with various members on the Committee and around the Club, I’ve decided to go ahead with organising a do in October.
This will require your co-operation. Though a few guys have offered their support, I will need everyone to buy […]

Very much mixed feelings for the Ladies after their trip to the Vale of Lune 10s Tournament last Sunday. Pride for qualifying for the Cup and giving a battling performance against Premier 1 hosts Vale of Lune Ladies in the semi final and dismay at losing centre Emma Gander  and hooker Lesley Kenny to injury.

The […]

Ormskirk Ladies touch rugby training begins on Tuesday 8th May at 7.30pm. 
Touch rugby is basically tag rugby without the tags!  Tackles are made by a two handed touch rather than taking a tag.  It is an enjoyable sport and an ideal way to get fit.  You don’t need any experience to join us, just enthusiasm. 
It’s […]
