It’s a wet one this week and the Dairy Lane pitch is not coping well with the constant down pour. Please keep an eye on the Facebook page with updates on training and games.

Never the less here is the Rugby plan for the week (weather permitting)!

It all kicks off on Friday as the Ladies Touch team continue their league action against Darlington Mowden Park. Kick off is 7pm. Pop down and support. The clubhouse is warm and the beer is cold.

On Saturday the 1st XV host to South Shields. A disappointing loss against Redcar two weeks ago has the team eager for a good win.
The Boars also face South Shields. They are on the road north to play the Mariners.
Earlier kick offs have started to 2.15pm.

On Sunday just two Youth games. The under 15s are in the first round of the County Cup so they take the main pitch. KO 10.45am against DMP.
Also, at home with the earlier KO of 10am The under 13s host to West Hartlepool. They will be playing on the Durham Road pitches.

Minis, Midis and 14s are training as usual.

Away Games:
U16s V Gateshead 11am
Colts V West Hartlepool (COUNTY CUP) 1pm
U13g V Gateshead (growth) 2pm
U15g V Ryton (NATIONAL CUP) 2pm
U18g V Hartlepool Rovers (COUNTY CUP) 2pm

We have a function in the clubhouse in the afternoon.

Best of luck to all the lads and lasses this week. Fingers crossed for another successful weekend.

PLEASE REMEMBER. Sunderland College are back at Dairy Lane on Tuesday evenings providing sports massage. These are students and are unable to diagnose however they are great for a rubdown following a physical game. The students are in from 6.30pm. We ask if you’re not training you come after 7pm. Players under 18 must have parental permission given to the course leader Paul.

See you around.
