Hear from the coaches before their crunch tie with Warriors in yorkshire cup semi final

On Sunday our under 16's travel to Hunslet Warriors in the semi-final of the BARLA Yorkshire Cup.

This is the furthest the boys have progressed in their Yorkshire Cup campaigns and sees Dockers face the Hunslet team for the second time.

One of the under 16's coaches said "Our last game against Hunslet Warriors was back in November 2014 when we travelled to them in the second round of the Yorkshire Cup. At that time they were unbeaten in every competition and I think we were beaten mentally before we'd even kicked off. They posted a big score against us and we didn't help ourselves having a couple of players sent off"

"There will probably be around a dozen players who played in that match available on Sunday and they are looking forward to the game. As a team we have had a steep learning curve over the last two seasons having played up a year and then played a year in the Yorkshire league"

"Hunslet are a good side and we will go into the game as underdogs though we have demonstrated this season we are capable of beating strong sides."
