Our sincerest condolences go out to all of the Shaw family and the Hindpool Tigers ARLFC on the passing of Graham Shaw, a Rival, a fellow team mate at Lancaster ARLFC but most of all a good friend to us all here at Heysham Atoms. Graham was such an asset for amateur rugby league. You will be sadly missed by so many, but remembered forever. Rest in Peace Graham 💙🖤🧡🏉

U10/11

Atoms hosted Roose Pioneers in a joint U10/11 friendly at King Georges

As Roose play in the Barrow league we had no real idea what to expect from our opposition

What resulted was an excellent match of two really strong defensive teams who managed to shuffle out any potential opportunities for the opposition. Both teams showed excellent tackle technique, great discipline and well organised team play from the start to the end

The end result? Possibly the lowest scoring draw either coach had ever seen in junior rugby! A huge well done to both teams

U11s

Atoms hosted Leigh East Reds this morning at sunny King Georges

Both sides turned out in great numbers which ensured a fast, frenetic and competitive game from the first minute to the last

Atoms defence once again was a major strong point as we were able to meet Leigh Easts good attacking skills and movement with tough tackling and well organised defence

In attack, Atoms played some good stuff keeping our structure, moving the ball through hands and taking creative risks

Many thanks to Ian and all at Leigh East who were excellent opposition as always, best of luck for the rest of the season!

Finally many thanks to Gaz for agreeing to ref, a fab performance! Job for life if you want one!!

Heysham Atoms U12s Match Report

Hindley U12s 10 – 24 Heysham Atoms U12s

Heysham Atoms travelled to Hindley this weekend and produced one of their most complete performances of the season, earning a superb 24–10 victory away from home.

It was always going to be a tough contest against a Hindley side boasting a strong pack of forwards, but Heysham’s aggressive defensive display laid the platform for victory. Their line speed, commitment and determination meant Hindley were given very little space to play, forcing errors and preventing the home side from building any sustained pressure.

When opportunities presented themselves, Heysham were ruthless. Alf crossed for two tries, with Jacob and Bobby also getting on the scoresheet to secure the four-try victory. It was particularly pleasing to see both Alf and Jacob make such an impact on their return from injury, each showing great determination and quality after time on the sidelines.

Hindley’s two tries came from a couple of minor mistakes by Heysham, but aside from those moments, the visitors were in control through their outstanding defensive effort.

This was undoubtedly one of the best all-round team performances of the season. The defensive standards continue to improve week by week, with every player working tirelessly for one another. There are still opportunities to sharpen the attack, but the foundations being built in defence are providing a platform for continued success.

Team:
Sam, Harry B, Harry C, Henry, Joseph, Alf, Jacob W, Stanley, Dylan, Noah, Bobby and Harrison.

Try scorers: Alf (2), Jacob, Bobby.

A brilliant team performance and a deserved win on the road. The effort, resilience and teamwork shown by every player made this a result the whole squad can be proud of.
