Junior colts tour to France is up there! Being part of the squad that beat caldy at the start of this year was a great day!

Birkenhead Park. No matter which team you’re playing for it always gets tasty. Pitch is decent too!

The club continuing to improve in the ways it did towards the end of last season! Then starting well this year and kicking on to finish in the top 3!
Also for the second team to be as successful as we were last year. It go on to tale the league this time rather than just missing out!

10 Have you got any personal goals you want achieve whilst playing?
I’d like to manage my working time better to enable me to solidify a position in the back 3 for the 1st team before I’m too old ? missed many years of rugby between 19 and 24/5 due to injury so I’d just like to make up for lost time and challenge my self every week at that level!
