Why have we chosen to use a separate site for the pictures???
When storing pictures within a website it tends to take up a lot of space.
Another issue is the website tends to slow down as there is more information to retrieve when visiting pages full of pictures.
Today was my first time with the 8's and have to say how PROUD I am of the ALL.
We train as a team and this morning played as A TEAM.
From Morgan, Steph and Max playing their first games in storm colours, right the way through to the older ones everyone did their bit.
We set them the target of getting 2 tries, so to acheive 6 is amazing
Â
MUMS and DADS be proud of them ALL, I AM they deserve it.
Mark,
I think the scorers in the 10s match were Matthew (2 tries, 1 goal), Will (1 try, 1 goal), Elliott (1 try, 1 goal) and Connor (1 try) - making it 26-0.
I think enormous credit must go to the coaches who have nurtured these youngsters over the last twelve months (and more). The players stuck in well last year when they took some batterings but yesterday all the hard work came to fruition. I have only been watching mini-RL for four years but that performance was as good as I have seen (certainly comparable with Barrow island Under 10s last season who were a superb side).
It is always nice to be kind to children who try but I am not being kind at all when I say that I wouldn't have marked any of them at less than 9 out of 10 yesterday. Nobody played badly and the ball handling and passing was a treat to watch. As for the defence - well, the scoreline says it all. A magnificent TEAM performance, and achieved against a fairly experienced Roose side who will win far more matches than they lose this year.
The worrying thing for the opposing sides is that this group of boys and girl will only improve - somebody is going to take one heck of a beating off this lot. And, bear in mind that last season's Players Player of the Season (Jacob) was missing through illness!!
I also watched the 8s match and thought the effort and bravery on show was exceptional. They may have lost to a bigger and quicker side but if they need any encouragement they only need to look at the current 10s and see what can be achieved with hard work at training. None of the current 10s found it easy when they first started out in the game. They, too were often out-muscled and out-run - but not any more.
Thanks for all the getwell messages for Charlie. He is still on the crutches. Assesment in 2 weeks by the orthopods. Charlie will be at training, sporting his crutches, and intends to cheer on the Storm. In true MALE style he is milking it. Joking aside, he has been very brave and hopes to be playing very soon.
Once again thanks to you all.
A great big thank you to our arts and crafts coordinators Mrs Petcher and Mrs Purcell for the production of flags both big and small. Amanda commented on how good they looked as we made our way around the pitch and the time and effort you and your helpers put in was obvious. Thanks again! MB
Both me and Adam had a brilliant time at Wigan really enjoyed it we are both getting well into rugby now think its great!
On behalf of all the kids, parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles, a great big thank you to Mark & Sarah Burrows for organising another fantastic trip to Wigan. We all enjoyed the stadium tour, the great match, Wigan v Catalan Dragons and the hospitality of the St Jude's coaches, teams and parents.
Thank you All.
Mrs P
Well done today U8's and U10's, really good games and brilliant to watch.
Thanks for a great night last Friday against Millom. The game, the BBQ and seeing my Son score his first try were just brilliant. Your dedication and commitment are much appreciated.
Hi Mark, On behalf of Millom Mini Rugby I would like to thank you for an excellent evening.
Everyone was very impressed with your club and how friendly you all were, the food was lovely and the cooks did a fantastic job!
The kids had a great time and my son has told me he made lots of new friends, which is what it is all about.
Can you please thank the kids for their hard work in the games, and their friendships afterwards, and also everyone else involved, from personal experience I know how much effort goes into organising these events.
We look forward to meeting you again and returning the favour!
Thanks again Lisa myers(chairperson, Millom Mini Rugby)
Well done the 8s & 10s today at Craven park great effort.
This Sunday has to be the best display so far for the 10's.
Well done 10's on your first win...keep up the good work!
Sorry, I didn't see the 8's game, but heard you were magnificent again, especially in defence. Well done to all!!!
I think we may have surprised some people today! The discipline of the 10s was commented on by the ref who said it was an easy game to look after as our boys played to the rules throughout. The tenacity and team spirit of the 8s was obvious in both the performance and the result.
Well done all!
Another fantastic day for our two teams today.
The defence was superb and the boys are really begining to shine, I think that word of mouth will be spreading soon to watch out for our boys they are really doing themselves proud.
A real pleasure to watch our boys playing together as friends and a strong sided team.
Keep up the good work everybody!
Spot on effort by all, bring on Askam!
What a good day it was for the boys this week.
Well done lads keep it up and it`ll look good for the future.
Keep it up boys!
The boys were a credit to themselves and their families yesterday. It takes a lot to stand in the cold and put your body on the line and they all supassed any expectations I had for them before, during and after the games. Thanks to everyone for making the day such a success.
Mark
Wow!!
