Boys Brigade prepare for the short trip across town to Grayfields to face local rivals West Hartlepool Technical Day School Old Boys (Tech for short). The headland outfit won an enthralling game 34-31 back in September but both sides have had several problems since then culminating in last weekend when both sides were unable to raise sides.

Boys Brigade are still waiting to hear back from several players with regards to availability but are able to welcome back several players in addition to the 6 who were available to face Yarm last week.

In the last 3 meetings between the two sides Brigades defence has struggled to cope with Tech’s big runner(s) and this is obviously an area of focus for this weekend.

Kick off 2:15 at TDSOB
