This week sees both Aireborough teams at home, with the the Crusaders due to take on Halifax Dukes in a rearranged Merit Table fixture. After last week's heroics we hope to hear the sound of Gold thumping out of the Nunroyd changing rooms with another double W.

This week’s Crusaders squad features much of the strength of the previous weeks, with the mix of youth (the Waugh brothers) and experience (Wilky!) expertly blended once again. However, one of the most exciting pieces of news for this weekend's squad is the return of Matt Osborn- a player whose class is well-known.

The Crusaders will be playing at Littlemoor School a short drive from the club, and as such please bear this in mind when looking at the meet time or if you are coming direct:

14:15 Kick Off, 13.00 meet at the club to allow time for lifts up to Littlemoor, with aim to start warm-up up there at 13:30 if coming direct to the pitch.
