Ashton 10-14 Ulverston

Ulverston Wolverines U14's travelled up to Ashton Bears to take on last season's U13 NWC plate winners on their own ground.

The Ulvie side travelled with lower numbers than preferred at the request of the Bears was enforced.

The air was thick with humidity which posed a challenge for the lads to maintain fitness levels throughout the game.

It was Ulvie that started quickest though, after some powering runs by the Ulvie pack it was Freddie Munro who crashed onto the ball with speed and ferocity to cross the line under the sticks for an easy conversion by Tedi McDonald to make it 0-6 within 5 mins.

The Bears roared back though capitalising on a high tackle to grant field position and allowing the pace in their back line to cross the try line for themselves making it 6-6 after 10.

What turned out to be a game of collisions, it was Ulvie's prop rotation that proved critical in breaking down the opposition only for Luke Jewell to dart through a tiring Bears defensive line from close quarters to make it 6-12 going into half time.

Whilst the away team were winning there was no time to celebrate, despite constant movement of the ball to attack different areas the Bears held strong.

Ulvie beginning to force it had multiple turnovers in scoring situations to end drives before completing their attacking sets. This lead to a few desperate tackle attempts that finally saw the Bears answer first in the 2nd half following some unfortunately situated refereeing decisions, which lead to the Bears having a full set of 6 only 20 yards out.

Luckily for Ulverston the kick after was unsuccessful to make it 10-12.

With prop rotation again catching a tiring Bears lineup, man of the match Jack Williamson was constantly crossing the gain line allowing Harry Simmons to find a gap from half way, goose stepping the fullback to cut back only for the referee to call back what looked like a certain on handed try for a knock on.

Now in good field position the Ulvie side caught a break 20 yards out and elected to kick the penalty to eat time and retain possession with less than 5 mins remaining.

Ulverston held strong despite the Bears giving it their best and lifted their arms in celebration as the final whistle marked the end of the game 10-14.

Ulverston now in the semi-finals of the NWC Shield have far surpassed their start of season goals already and can attack their next fixture with freedom and conviction.

This week sees the side play Shevington Hammerheads at Dragley Beck where hopefully more of the squad unable to play in this one will get their chances to shine.

🏉 Atkinson Memorial Game 🏉

A huge thank you to everyone who came along to the Atkinson Memorial Game today. Congratulations to Millom, who came out victorious after a competitive and enjoyable match. 👏

While the result didn’t go our way, it was a fantastic afternoon all around, played in great spirit and enjoyed by players, supporters, and friends alike.

A special mention to Leon Knight, who kept everyone entertained throughout the day with his brilliant voice and excellent music selection, helping to create a great atmosphere from start to finish. 🎤🎶

Thank you to Millom for making the trip and to everyone who helped make the day such a success. We look forward to seeing you all again soon.

Unfortunately wasn’t meant to be today as the lads just didn’t get going. In a great arm wrestle early on but got out muscled by a strong Millom side.

The day however was all for the late Lauren and Nige Atkinson and the players and fans didn’t disappoint with a great display of respect.

The man of the match today and newly found; Nigel Atkinson MOM trophy went to Alex Grimshaw.

🕊️💙💛

Ulverston Rugby would like to extend its deepest condolences to the family and friends of Chris Milby, who very saddly passed away far too soon.

Today chris was sadly laid to rest.

Chris was a ex Ulverston player from juniors to open age 🏉

Our thoughts are with all who knew and loved him at this incredibly difficult time.

Rest in peace, Chris 💙
