Match Preview

This week Aireborough face a double header against local rivals Baildon, with both the 1st XV and Crusaders facing an old enemy. In a change to scheduled proceedings dictated by the waterlogged pitch at Nunroyd Park BOTH GAMES will be taking place away at Baildon.

The Crusaders will be missing captain James Underwood, and the likes of Marty Jones has earned a call up to 1s, but they should have more than enough to right the wrongs of earlier in the season with a squad brimming with quality. Special mention goes to Dan Mahmood making his debut this weekend, an unknown quantity but we wish him all the best for his first time out in a Crusaders' shirt.

15:00 Kick Off, 13:00 meet at the Club or 13:30 if going direct to Baildon. Aiming to be out, warming up by 14:00
