In some slippery conditions at Longcroft, the Braves were up to take on the East Hull visitors. Kurt Pelham took a fine catch to start the game with conviction. East Hull ran strongly and put pressure on the home side’s line. Despite some bruising tackles East Hull broke free and went over for an early lead. Play resumed with the same conviction and Joe Wardill took a sky high kick…
It was an early start for the Braves this Halloween morning and both sides look nervous for the first few minutes of play. Zak Mayo took the ball cleanly from the off but the game was scrappy for a while and Normanton capitalised on a couple of offside’s from Beverley which gave them valuable yards up the field. This pressure was felt even more when James McGahey was taken off…
The Blue and Golds were outplayed for the majority of this game at the Beverley Leisure Centre by a more experienced opposition. The visitors from Keyingham swept into a 16-0 lead after only 25 minutes of play. However the introduction of Guy Adams off the bench perked the Blue and Golds up and one powerful surge from him set up the position for Steve Davidson to twist and turn his…
With their summer season now over, almost fifty players received trophies and medals at the 2010 Beverley Braves presentations for the Cubs, under eights and under nines at Hodgsons on Sunday 17th October. The ever increasing popularity of the club was emphasised by the number of cubs receiving medals from guest of honour Airlie Bird, the Hull FC mascot. The eleven cubs are all under six and whilst they do…
Braves were on top form straight from the whistle with tough strong tackles going in hard and fast. After just a few minutes Dylan Clifford broke free and charged through the Warriors defence as strong as an ox, to crash over the line for his first try of the day. Owen Harrison executed an outstanding kick to make it 6 points in as many minutes. The Braves did not stop…
The blue and golds exited the cup this saturday on their travels to Cottingham. The match was a dour stop start affair not helped by the over zealous interpretation of the rules by the match official which resulted in a continuous stream of penalties awarded against both sides. The home side crossed for two early tries to race to a 12-0 lead. Rob Thompson started the fight back for the…
The home side started confidently with a fantastic kick on the last from Zac Mayo and a very determined chase by Joe Wardill, which led to a drop out. Beverley’s hard work soon paid off after a good passing play by Joe and Zac sending Harry Grey over in the corner, which made the score line 4 – 0 after a missed conversion. Joe Wardill went over for Braves after…
Hull Isberg came out the eventual winners in a very tight game at the Beverley Leisure Centre. The early stages of the match saw Isberg pressuring the Beverley line, but the focused Braves defence kept the Hull side out. Beverley then found good field position and a brilliant dummy from scrum half Ethan Cambridge saw him make space and out pace the Isberg defence to dive over for the opening…
This was a sickening defeat for the blue and golds as they paraded their new strip.The visitors snatched victory with a try in the corner in the final seconds of the game to spoil the party. The hosts twice surrendered a ten point lead, in a game that they appeared to have the measure of their opponents in attack but let themselves down in defence at times. The game started…
As the scoreline suggests this game was mission impossible. The blue and golds travelled to Leeds last Saturday against a side which would certainly not be out of place in the Premier Division of the National Conference if they possessed the facilities to be there. They were physically bigger and oused class and ability from one to thirteen boasting a number of ex professionals in their ranks. There was no…
Pouring rain could not dampen the spirit of the young lads this week as Beverley Braves U13 took on an undefeated Hull Dockers.

The blue and golds will consider this one a point lost rather than a point gained from this trip to Hull University. They attempted to play adventurously in blustery conditions which resulted in some spectacular tries but at times they made one pass too many when a more direct style of play was required. On a day when many players were having an off day the man of the match…
The blue and golds took the spoils in an encounter which they appeared to possess more big guns than their youthful but enthusiastic opponents but at times made hard work of it. The hosts piled on the pressure early which eventually paid dividends with Gavin Proctor going over from his customary dummy half position in the 10th minute. Shortly after a well worked move amongst the forwards saw popular publican…
The Beverley Braves started the Hull and District Youth Rugby League season against old rivals Skirlaugh Bulls and straight from the off there was some excellent crunching tackles from both sides. Despite being strengthened this season with some skilled new players it was Skirlaugh who broke free in the first few minutes from their big no. 20 who was also their play maker last season. Skirlaugh piled the pressure on;…
In a massive improvement on the previous weeks disjointed effort the blue and golds took home both points on their travels to Bilton on Saturday.
