Congrats to anyone involved with North Herts Crusaders (men's) RL team - East League winners in their first ever season, which is pretty amazing. Okay, not a women's team so slightly off topic, but major regional titles don't come to this area that often in any sport, leave alone one based in Letchworth.
The team was based round a pretty solid core of pretty talented players from Letchworth RFC (which bodes well for them next season I guess), so they were hardly new to this sort of sport (though RLis a bit different) but still...pretty impressive.
The scoreline (63-30) was even more remarkable considering the team they beat certainly were not newcomers to the game.
So well done everyone - and worth a reminder that if enough women over the age of 16 wanted to play the game NHC have said that they would be welcome.
One of the ways in which we have identified to grow and offer rugby league to more people was to look into the possibility of starting a womans rugby league team. We will soon be looking to recruit players and hopefully have some games next summer.
