Junior Ravens off to a flier

The first training session for the Junior Ravens Rugby League was a major success for the club, all the teams had a mix of returning players and new faces that joined in, the club had players that had never played before to players that had followed Warrington or Wigan for example all their life, though everyone enjoyed the session which was held in artic conditions in the heart of Dartford.

All the coaches came away happy as they commented on how much all the Juniors enjoyed the session, even the one’s that braved the weather by wearing shorts and T-shirt were happy running around Acacia Hall.

Next Saturday will see the start of the RFL Southern Leagues for all our teams between ages 12 and 16 (school year 7 to 11) as they take on St Albans at Acacia Hall, as the session closed Club director Vicki Bacon commented that “The hope is that the success of today (last Thursday) will add to the Junior Ravens recruitment and next weeks session will be even bigger” with that in mind the Junior Ravens will be continuing their recruitment drive is looking for juniors between 6 and 16 to come along and take up Rugby League, this simple but spectacular sport seems to be perfect for children as after every match our players can not wait for the next one even if it’s their first ever bit of sport.

The Junior Ravens are looking for children of all ages to come and join in even if you have no experience; it is great fun with also the chance for players to work through representative honours too.
