Year 11 Rugby wow the crowd at AJ Bell stadium
Last Friday saw our hard working Year 11 side rewarded with the once in a lifetime opportunity to run out onto the pitch at the AJ Bell stadium.
They joined the evening’s schedule, entertaining the masses of spectators who had thronged into the home of the Salford Red Devils to watch their final game of the season against league leaders St Helens. The young men fought through 9 matches in a 9-a-side format against schools from all over Greater Manchester to qualify for the final against local rivals St Ambrose Barlow winning 7, drawing one and losing just one match.
They opened their campaign with a hard fought draw against St Patricks A which saw Captain Cauley Barber lead his team around the park, shifting the ball well from acting half Louie Hudson whose slick handling skills and footwork allowed our committed runners Will Anderton and Ryan Noa punch holes through defences and cross over to begin their tally of tries.
