Globe Holidays sponsored Stocksbridge Rugby were left without a fixture at the weekend, as they were forced to concede their cup tie with Maltby RUFC due to injuries, player unavailability & late withdrawals. Head Coach Aaron Kaye gave the rest of the squad the weekend off, to prepare for this weekend's coming fixture away in West Yorkshire at basement club Knottingley RUFC. Stocksbridge will travel in good heart having won their last 2 games, gaining some momentum, & a victory in this Round 7 clash is well within their grasp.
No league fixtures in the Counties 4 Yorkshire South means it's as you were in the league ladder, with Stocksbridge remaining in 3rd position.
The JPG Group Man of Steel award for October has been won by Harrison 'the storm' Norman, kindly sponsored by Mr/s Dave + Jacqueline Lambert. Norman beat skipper Beal, young flier Staley-Howson & promising young half back Archie Taylor along with the versatile Jack Spencer in a closely contested decision. Norman has been consistent on both sides of the ball in recent games, aswell as producing a number of tries during the process.
The next home fixture at the Coal Pit Lane Arena will be the derby clash with closest neighbours Wortley RUFC on 8th November, with a 2.30pm kick off. Entrance is free.
