Masters Rugby League started in New Zealand in 1992, progressing to Australia in quick pursuit and in recent years immigrating to the UK. Masters Rugby League is a social version of the game engaging those over the age of 35. The rules are slightly modified to cater for the older gentleman, but with the man rules being no winners, no champions and no cup finals. The most important of rules being that you buy your opposite number a drink.
Different short colours apply to adhere to the player’s age bands, with modified contact per age group.
If any ex players or parents are interested in forming a team for this season please let the club secretary (Graham) know so that we can start the wheels (though they may be rusty) turning.
A number of other clubs have shown interest and formed teams. It would be good not only for you but the club as well if we could take up the challange.
