They say Cumbria is a heartland of the sport but it's biggest town doesn't have any teams The RL heartlands in Cumbria are along the west coast from say maryport down to millom and the Furness region around barrow. Northern and eastern Cumbria are barren and Very similar to Yorkshire and Lancashire which has large gaps in South Yorkshire and the Manchester areas respectively.

Anyone who tells you Cumbria is still an hotbed for RL is talking nonsense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
