Support the Club: Promote Ladies Night!

Ladies Night tickets are going well for what is set to be a terrific night.

Starting at 7.30 5 April in Mystique (Flying Horse Hotel), we have a female vocalist, comedienne and, of course, two 'tasteful' Chippendales.

For just £10 you can have a great evening out and support the clubs coffers as well.

All money raised will be going towards the u20s running costs, so please ensure that we spread the word and ensure we have a bumper crowd.

Please get in touch via info@hornetsrugbyleague.com or wendy.hamer@sky.com or 01706 648004.

Tetleys Challenge Cup Magic We are in action again on Sunday as top Pennine team Hunslet Old Boys come to Spotland for the third round tie.

Ian Talbot commented on team selection: 'The team will be very close to the one that played at Oldham on Good Friday. The lads that played against Skolars have given me a selection headache though. Il speak to Matt at training to see if we can have a look again at some of them in the under 20s on Friday. I am sure a lot of that squad will feature at regular points this season'

Hunslet Old Boys are currently flying high and reaching cup finals left, right and centre and with 3 supporter coach loads of fans expected, Hornets will need everyone present and in full voice to see the lads through a tricky tie.

The match sponsor is Geldard Electrical Supplies, with Samurai Sports providing the match ball sponsorship.

The draw for the next round is made on Monday 8th April, and we want to be in with the chance of playing a Super League team on the weekend of the 20/21 April.

Sundays game is an 'all pay gate' and season tickets cannot be used for this game. Admission is £10 adults, £5 under 16s.

Don’t forget we are also running a supporters trip to the final, which costs £55 for non members, £50 for members.

Call into the office to pay your £10 deposit and secure your place!

Whitebank beckons, again...
The under 20s are back in action after nearly a month this Friday as they take on Oldham at the infamous Whitebank Stadium.

Kick off is at 8pm and the boys will be looking to pick up another win against a team they have already beaten this year.
