Missed Chances Prove Costly For Town Reserves

October 3, 2010

The Beavers entertained Reckitts Reserves for the second time in three weeks looking to emulate their win a fortnight earlier. Things looked promising for Beverley as they created a number of chances with Stockman causing problems up front. Unfortunately Beverley were left rueing their chances as Reckitts scored in the last minute of the first half. The second half saw Reckitts improve and Beverleys goal opportunities were resticted to half…

Beverley Beat Visitors Sandal at Beaver Park

October 3, 2010

You couldn’t ask for better than this.  Two teams going flat out with non-stop attacking rugby gave us a great match.  Seven tries and most of them pretty good ones.  Beverley have been threatening all season to click into shape and today it all came together with a fine performance that brought them a well deserved victory.  With only one previous defeat and the best defensive record in the league…

Beavers Seconds Win Easily Against Goole

October 2, 2010

With one of the strongest sides Beverley 2nds have managed to field for quite some time,  the outcome of their match against an obviously young and inexperienced Goole team, looked pretty obvious. The game had only just started before Beverley had their 1st score on the board. Some excellent forward pressure and the ball was turned over far too easily and a simple try was scored. Beverley were clearly showing…

Hard Match Expected With Visit of Sandal

September 30, 2010

Saturday sees Beverley RUFC entertaining Sandal in what is sure to be yet another tough encounter. Having, for the third week in succession, allowed their opponents to build up an apparently unassailable lead with only 15 or 20 minutes to go last weekend at Darlington Mowden Park, the Beavers suddenly started to play as we know they can and, given another 5 minutes would probably have won all three games….

The Inter Beaver sneaked past FC Fruit this Sunday with a 2 – 1 victory. Inter took the lead thanks a dubious penalty, awarded for what looked like a foul outside the box, Mike Dixon stepped up and coolly converted the kick.

Beverley Town Under-9s beat Hessle Sporting Typhoons Under-9s 1-0 and 3-2. Two closely fought matches resulted in hard-earned victories on each occasion for Beverley Town.

Molescroft FC Hit Hedon For Six

September 27, 2010

Molescroft FC brushed Hedon aside at Longcroft School. Although leading at half time, Molescroft had looked shaky at the back in the first half, chasing shadows.  Hedon played some great football, though they were unable to make anything of their chances. A half-time talk from Manager Dave Burr and Coach Glynn Lockyer gave the Molescroft players a much needed boost.  Playing much better in the second half, Molescroft scored a…

Mohicans Batter St Andrews 5 – 1 in Myton League

September 27, 2010

Mohicans started how they finished their previous match, in a very positive manner and it took a couple of good saves and shots just off target for the score to be 0-0 going into the 8th minute. Jamie Spence then sent a long dead ball to Callum Ward who raced down the wing before cutting along the by-line and scoring from an acute angle. More shots just wide from Sam…

Blue & Golds Drop Points at Rangers

September 26, 2010

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…

Beavers Fightback Though Lose at Darlington

September 26, 2010

So near and yet so far.  For the second week running Beverley were down and out and then came back superbly to get to within a single score of victory.  In the end they probably lost this one because they gave away too many soft scores in the middle period, principally through poor tackling and wayward kicking out of defence. Once again they completely dominated the first quarter of an…
