Under eights – Beverley Braves under eights had a quick look into the future on Tuesday night when they were able to field two teams against Skirlaugh bulls and that future looks very bright indeed. One team consisted of players who move up to under nines next season and the other of those who will again qualify as under eights in 2012. In the match with the younger starlets Alexie…
Ellis Gaden turned in a display of powerful running as he claimed the star of the match trophy against another strong team in Skirlaugh A at Saltend. It was a much improved performance all round from the Braves as they stood up to a big Skirlaugh side who just kept on coming. Alex and Tom Nuttall each scored good tries and Charlie Barker got what is now a customary touchdown…
Beverley Braves under 8s were beaten 11-4 at Longcroft by West Hull A who were just the better team on the night, despite this the boys never gave in which was good to see.

The Beverley Braves under 9’s went down to only their second defeat of the season to Myton Warriors in a game that was highly competitive with the result in doubt right up to the final whistle. Defences were on top throughout the game and this was reflected in the man of the match award going to Joseph Denis for several copy book tackles and some great breaks. In fact several…
The Beverley Braves under 9’s went to Shelley Avenue and scored eleven tries against Sutton Trust on a short pitch, but conceded nine on an amazing night when attack came before defence. Sutton Trust opened the scoring in their first set of six and that set the tone for the rest of the game. Beverley responded with a try after a weaving run from Ethan Rowbotham and then last season’s…

Within minutes of the start, the Bulls caught Beverley totally off guard to score their first try. Spectators must have thought this was how…
The match started sadly for Beverley Braves today as in form Bailey Foulston was taken off the pitch within the first few minutes with a broken collar after a strong tackle. He has been playing superbly of late and his presence will be missed.
