📋 MATCH REPORT 📋

A fantastic performance from the Leigh East Lions at home as they secured an amazing victory over Rochdale Mayfield.

The Lions came out firing and dominated the first half, heading into the break with a strong lead. The second half continued in much the same fashion, with the Lions adding further points and keeping Rochdale Mayfield scoreless. A special mention to Tristen, who crossed the line for his first try for the Lions — congratulations, Tristen! 👏

A brilliant team performance from start to finish, with the Lions showing great effort, determination, and teamwork to finish with a well-deserved win.

📋 MATCH REPORT 📋

Sorry this ones a little late...

Leigh East Lions were narrowly beaten 16-12 away to Drighlington in a hard-fought BARLA Cup encounter. The Lions made a bright start, with Lukas linking up nicely with Jack crossing for the opening try of the game, and a determined first-half performance saw them take a deserved 10-6 lead into the break.

The second half was an evenly contested affair, but Drighlington fought their way back to edge in front. Despite a spirited effort and battling until the final whistle, the Lions were unable to find the decisive score as the hosts secured a narrow 16-12 victory. There were plenty of positives to take from the performance, with Leigh East showing great determination and teamwork throughout.
