Leigh East Fun Day a Massive Success

Leigh East ARLFC had their first Development/fun day at Leigh Sports Village on Sunday which was a fantastic event. We would like to thank everyone involved from coaches, team secretaries, parents, committee and children. We would also like to thank the staff from LSV for all their help and support that made this day huge success. A big thank you also to the Photographers and cheerleaders for their involvement. Mr Andy Burnham opened the day which also included the launch of our new outdoor exercise equipment which we obtained with the help of funding from Wigan Council and The Big Lottery Fund to whom we are extremely grateful.

Leigh East U7s welcomed Ashton Bears, Woolston and Leigh Miners to the bank holiday fun day. Which gave the youngsters a great opportunity to show off their skills. Many thanks goes to the coaching staff of all the clubs who attended and expressed their thanks for a wonderful day

Halton proved to be a touch more decisive near the east line and finally ran out victors, but a gallant effort from the east lads.

Leigh East U10s 2-6 Golborne Parkside

Leigh East U15s 26-8 Latchford Albion

East were hosts in a friendly before next weeks semi final but still remain unbeaten in 2014. It was East who were quickest out of the blocks scoring 2 tries but sloppy defending let Latchford back into the game. The second half was pretty much the same but East always looked in control and didn't need to get out of 1st gear. This weeks semi final is against Shevington Sharks at home kicking off at 12:15pm.
