Fresh from 3 straight victories the under 12s came back to earth with a bump over the weekend losing 24 points to 14 against local rivals Leigh. If ever there was a game of two halves then this was it.

Ormskirk were forced into re-shuffle of their side due to the unavailability of several key […]

Ormskirk u13s 19pts - Wirral u13s 23pts
In the first fixture of the new year the u13s put in a great performance against a very good Wirral side. The margin of defeat being a try in the last 2 minutes of the game.

From the start Ormskirk began brightly and indecision in the visitors defence saw them […]

The U8’s started 2007 with a well earned draw against a very good Widnes team @ Green Lane on the 7th January. The scoreline was 4 - 4 with some excellent rugby played by both teams. All the boys played well with Chris Murray- Moon voted the player of the week.

The under 12s were looking forward to this late arranged fixture against local rivals Tarleton especially as they had ended 2006 on a real high and were keen to burn off some of the turkey and other goodies consumed over the Christmas break.  It was obvious from the start that Ormskirk were going to have […]

Ormskirk u13s 12pts - New Brighton u13s 17pts
Ormskirk started this game brightly, but the on-going problem of the size of the squad - both in numbers and physical size - once again conspired against them to lose a game that they should have and could have won.

The backs have a great talent and once again […]

The U8’s finished off 2006 playing a “round robin” against Aldwinians and Sedgely Park at Sedgley Park on the 17th December.  This was a bit of a surprise as we thought it was just an away game but as usual the boys relished the challenge. We won 6 - 4 against Aldwinians and 7 - 2 […]

Ormskirk u13s 37*pts - Blackburn u13s 7pts
After a few tough encounters against powerful opponents, it was a welcome change that Ormskirk were the team dishing out a lesson on Sunday against a plucky and spirited but totally outclassed Blackburn outfit.

To begin with, things weren’t looking too good as the opposition turned up with only 11 […]

Following on fom last weeks heartbreaking last minute defeat at Preston the Under 12s played hosts to Manchester over the weekend with one or two points to prove. A near full strength squad of over twenty players gave the coaches the luxury of some hard thinking to do in terms of picking the starting line-up. […]

The under 12’s travelled to Preston Grasshoppers with a weakened squad last weekend -though this gave the coaches an opportunity to cast an eye over a couple of new players to the team.

As always Preston fielded a massive team in terms of weight and height and they dwarfed the Ormskirk team in every position. […]

Ormskirk U13 14pts - Preston Grasshoppers U13 41pts
After a morale-boosting win at Fleetwood it was back to Green Lane for a rare home fixture against a big Preston side.

This was always going to be a tough game, as this Preston side is renowned for its large pack of forwards. They didn’t disappoint the travelling support […]

Fleetwood u13 7pts - Ormskirk u13 10pts
Its a long way to Fleetwood, but a nice journey back knowing you’ve won.
A delayed departure without the only two subs available was not the best start, and as the 15 players travelled to Fleetwood it was the coaches’ job to try and formulate the best line up. Thankfully […]

Tyldesley u13  29-7  Ormskirk u13 
The U13s travelled to Tyldesley for a pool fixture in bouyant mood after a good win at Lymm a fortnight ago. However, after a bright start it all fell apart in a poor second half.

The opening half was end to end with big hits from both sides allied to some good […]

After some tough matches to start the season, the under 12s  finally got into winning gear with a well deserved 33 points to 7 victory over a keen and eager Hoylake outfit at the weekend.

Ormskirk dominated the first half but found themselves only 5 points to nil up at the break with a well worked […]

Our first run out at home was against this very tough Lancaster opposition. In spite of absences, owing to the half term break, we were still able to field a squad of 20 players,including a brace on their initial club outing. Prior to kick off it was agreed that we would play three games […]

Ormskirk U8s had their first home game of the season against Vale this Sunday.
We lost 5-2 but the game was closer than the scoreline suggests with all the boys playing well.
4 players played their first ever games for the club and all did very well so congatulations to Joe, Luke, Adam & Jamie.
