				September 2006:
 
 
				
				 A great exhibition of attacking and defensive rugby from Stanley 
				Rangers U10s brought them out on top against a determined 
				defensive display from Normanton Knights. Stanley experimented 
				with some great passing moves and a sublime kicking game putting 
				all the hard work in training into practice. Tries from Max 
				Jowitt, George Goodall and Thomas Shippen.

				of both teams are encouraged to car share where possible, and 
				additional parking is available at Stanley Rodillians RUFC (WF3
