We're now confirmed as returning to Coventry RFC's Butts Park where we played some of our games in the 2004 and 2005 seasons.
Sounds good news to me and is a good stadium for our step up to RLC National.

That the one with the bar under the main stand?
A lot of Yorkshiremen believe that when God created the world, he made it with perfect balance.
He balanced the hot areas with the cold areas. the dry areas with the wet areas.
And, in creating Yorkshire, he created the most glorious place on earth - full of majestic beauty and sporting giants.........and for balance he created....... Lancashire.

Yes that's the one.
It's on the site of the original home of Coventry Northern Union before the first world war.

Yeah that's the plan, was a big shock to me last year playing a 10 game season instead of the normal 20 or 30 odd I used to get in the Cumberland ARL so if we get to National South in 2012 a nice long season will be superb

Yeah the ground would easily be good enough for Championship 1 though of course were that to happen in the medium term future we'd have to recruit the best players from other clubs as well once juniors come through.
