Roughyeds’
Tag Tournament
Oldham Roughyeds have
linked up with the Hathershaw School Sports Partnership to organise
a Rugby League Tag Tournament on Tuesday 20th November.
The event kicks off at 1.30pm at Hathershaw School and brings
together several local Primary Schools. This competition is the
culmination of an intense period of Rugby League Coaching sessions
delivered by the Roughyeds’ Community Development Department and
part-funded by “Energise”.
In addition to over 100
boys and girls expected to participate, the Tournament will benefit
from the expertise of the recipients of the Junior Sports Leaders
Award while Roughyeds stars and club mascot, “Red’Ed” will also be
in attendance.
Sean Mellor, Roughyeds’
Community Development Manager has been delighted with the response
to the event. “This is my first experience of inter-school activity
in Oldham and I have been very impressed with the enthusiasm and
natural ability of many of the children and the level of cooperation
of the various partners. Oldham has a great pedigree for unearthing
Rugby League talent and I am sure there will be plenty on show at
this Tournament.”
