Our magnificent Colts, already League Champions and County Plate winners, capped an incredible campaign by defeating Redcar 62-19 at Preston Avenue on Sunday to remain unbeaten for the season.
Although player numbers have often been problematic, the lads have played some awesome rugby regularly racking up cricket scores with play that is simply fantastic to watch, ably led by skipper Josh Cox and vice-captain George Bogg.
As well as the players, the club owes a huge debt of gratitude to team manager Grant Taylor and coaches Phil Nicholson, Ankur Mehta, Mark Charlton and Rob Snow. Special thanks to Ben Thompson and John Beck and all of the parents and supporters who have helped out this season, it has been a real team effort
The whole Club is extremely proud of what you have all achieved. The post-match celebrations were well deserved!
