Hillsborough Hawks Women's Rugby League

[SHORTEAGLE 10]

MEDIA RELEASE ON BEHALF OF SHEFFIELD HILLSBOROUGH HAWKS WOMEN'S OPEN AGE ARLFC

 

The women's team of Sheffield Hillsborough Hawks ARLFC may well be playing their very last game of rugby league this Sunday (2nd April) at Hillsborough Arena against Rochdale (Kick-off 2pm)

 

Even though they are part of the Women's Development League they are finding it impossible to continue due to a lack of players.

 

The team has had in the past been highly successful, has scored some notable victories, but is now suffering due to a total lack of numbers.

 

In a city of Sheffield's size it seems incredible that the club cannot get even a dozen ladies (Over 16 yrs of age) to play rugby league, even though it is played and coached in schools throughout the city.

 

PLEASE COME AND SUPPORT THE TEAM ON SUNDAY 2ND APRIL AT HILLSBOROUGH ARENA AGAINST ROCHDALE.

 

Anyone know any ladies who would like to play in the future / have played in the past / who want to keep a club alive please come down and have a chat with any of the team on Sunday.

It is a development team, and thus a fun team.

Training Wednesdays and Fridays 6 - 8

 

Please help out if you can

Anyone who would like to play please contact Sarah Hewart c/o Hillsborough Arena: 0114 233 5310

Just to mention people can ease themselves into the game, they don't have to go out and be flattened their first time! My wife plays for the team so I hope a few of you are interested.
