PENNINE LEAGUE

Any news if or when it starts this year no news on the website yet.

Personally still prefer to watch winter rugby and it is a vital source of

bar takings to some clubs. So may it long continue to be played.

I'll see what I can find out for you - Lack of promotion is a major region the Pennine league fail down on, when Roger Fagge  was working at BARLA the press was bombarded and clubs knew what was happening, getting rid of him was a major own goal

I can remember when there were six

Back in the days of mud and fog (80s-90s) there were nine divisions (our A team played in Division Eight) and more than 90 teams.

Similar numbers in the North West when Ron Girvin and his family administer a fantastic competition.

Pennine league website has now been down for the last couple of days its getting nearer start date but no fixtures announced yet. Hope they issue a full fixture list for the season and not one with fixtures for the just the following two weeks.
