North Ribb Ladies are proud to announce the recipients of our annual awards from this years presentation evening! 🏆

Our ladies shared a great evening, reflecting on the season and recognising the hard work/ achievements of all players, whilst applauding this years award winners!👏

The evening was made even more enjoyable by the excellent food, kindly hosted by The Craven Arms, Giggleswick, which was greatly appreciated by all those who attended.🍴🍻

The first awards were;
🏅Most Improved~ Sophie Barden
🏅Back of the Season~ Immy Calverley

These girls have had a fantastic season, showing great commitment and determination. They have all developed significantly as players, improving their skills, confidence and understanding of the game! You should be proud! 🩵

Recently, we had the pleasure of welcoming Long Preston & Hellifield Guides for a fun filled training session, in order for them to gain their rugby badges!🏅👩🏼

The girls went through various stations, carrying out different skills in each one. Activities included;
🏉Kicking over the posts
🏉Testing fast responses with a cone drill
🏉Handling work- passing down the line
🏉Speed- working as a team during relay
🏉Game of Touch rugby!

It was lovely having so many girls join us for the evening, to learn about the sport. We hope you all enjoyed it and maybe even encouraged some future rugby players!
Definitely earned your rugby badges!🏉🏅
