  1. Tomorrow sees Scotland u16s take on Wales u16 at Biggar RU KO 1130

    To accompany this a new club has been formed to give junior players regular RL games, Lanarkshire Lions u14s will take on North East team Consett Eagles KO 1300 then Lanarkshire Lions u16s will take on Yorkshires Farnley Falcons at 1415

    Hopefully in the near future a Lanarkshire senior team could be born?

    Any news on international fixtures this year mate?

    Certainly the SRU have been busy with the U16s 18s with matches and the recent development of the Girls/Womens team, with a tri series event happening in October between Scotland Jamaica and an England lions squad

    As for the senior teams, no idea as yet 

  4. Glasgow sought revenge on new boys West End yesterday with a 40-24 victory 

    Meanwhile in the capital it took a last minute try for Edinburgh to over come Forth by 44-38

    Think the score was the other way round, Vikings winning 42-28 (according to their social media at least).

    Yeah Forth Valley did win, reporting error on Westend social site

    Meanwhile in the 4Ns Scotland u16s narrowly lost 26-22 to England lions with the u18s losing 32-12

    Pleasing to see a new team. Hopefully all of the above is a sign that Scotland are finding their feet again and ready to grow.

    Scotland RL seem to be taking a slow methodical approach making sure development teams are in place so hopefully more young Scots will come across codes. It’s all positive moves 

  10. So the new season is nearly upon us with a new 9s event and a new team. West End Warriors join the league this year, based at Hillhead Glasgow, nothing much else known but I’ll find out, but the season begins on May 10th in Edinburgh with a 9s tournament 

    17th May sees Forth Valley take on Glasgow and West End Warriors host Edinburgh 

    with playoffs and grand final later in the year

    Meanwhile Scotland u16’s take on a future Dons team tonight at Bentley ARLFC KO 6pm

  11. Last weekend saw the Edinburgh sport big weekend where Scotlands U16 U18 met to prepare for upcoming matches 

    Glasgow then met Team Colostomy uk winning 50-6. Team Colostomy then went on to play Edinburgh wheelchair team on Sunday under PDRL rules

    Sunday saw U14 boys and U14 U16 girls development day with around 150 participants over the 2 days

    Also Scotland U18’s will benefit from 2 new sponsors for the upcoming season from Boiler juice and ATS

  12. So the SRL have been busy behind the scenes recently with trials at U16 U18 and women’s 

    Over 70 individuals turned to at the U16 18 level and coaching teams put in place 

    Over 20 females turned up for their first ever meet up, and more planned

    Club wise there were murmurs of a 4th club but as of yet nothing. Edinburgh Forth Valley and Glasgow still very active. 
    Glasgow take on Chorley Panthers today in a pre season Friendly 

    Teams have been busy getting sponsors onboard so here’s hoping for a successful year and keep the sport moving in the right direction

  13. Well I’ll be there pushing Scotland on, I’ll accept the heritage players for now as I know behind the scenes SRL are working hard without any budget, and the 60 odd lads who turn up at weekends to play work dam hard. 
    Hopefully we can actually get games going in Scotland, it’s going to be slow but we’ll get there
