Yorkshire Rugby

So in (the 4th and they say final edition) Yorkshire 3 for next season we have in 3A;

Burley
Hornsea
Rowntrees
Skipton
West Parks Leeds
York RI
North Ribblesdale 2's
Morley 2's
Pocklington 2's
Scarborough 2's
Selby 2's
Wetherby 2's

And then in 3B we have ;

Barnsley
Castleford
Halifax
Hemsworth
Maltby
Ossett
Rotherham Phoenix
Huddersfield 2's
Moortown 2's
Old Brods 2's
Pontefract 2's
Yarnbury 2's

I'm going to wait for the fixtures to officially be out before I believe it or doing a proper pre season run down but for now this is the leagues for the 26/27 season.

I hope so

Quote from: Grasser17 on Jun 10, 2026, 09:47 AMThe only place I went last season in Yorkshire 3 that charged for entry was Wheatley Hills, they had a programme and charged £5 to get in.

A couple of other teams did digital programmes but no one else charged for entry I believe.

Skipton charge £3 and you get a programme.

And remember when Bill Sweeney did the roadshows to try and keep his job?
His comment:
"If you can't afford the travel, you're in the wrong league.

Not Yorkshire related but has anyone seen the news about Macclesfield being relegated from Nat 2 to Regional 1 NW.

to cut a long story short they finished 3rd in Nat 2 north last season but was moved to Nat 2 West for this up coming season due to the number of northern teams at level 4, along with Lymm who are also northern based.

 They both requested to be in a 16 team Nat 2 north league to reduce travel but the RFU said No, Mac challenged the decision and so the RFU have relegated them.

Still plenty of unknowns like who now goes in to Nat 2 west and will there be 13 teams in Regional 1 NW ?

I think the RFU have f***ed up big time.

I've seen we have another change labelled as final

        you really should stop either smoking or inhaling illegal substances. It does you no favours and as most drug addicts you seem to be hallucinating with fantasy comments. Please respond when you have gone through "Cold Turkey" and are capable of a sensible conversation. I await your response with baited breath.

It'll be easy enough for you to have a simple chat over the family dinner table why he's claiming such a fee during his talks with your fellow simple Dales Folk across the valley.

I don't expect you to ever actually admit the vast sums you pay out as we all know Ribb are a proper community club that never ever bend the rules

Quality players bypassing know paying clubs, to play for lower league teams just for the love of the area, will always raise a few eyebrows or lead to the odd acerbic retort.

Did a north Yorks club receive substantial money during covid (£50,000 ?) claiming they would probably cease to exist without it ?

If so, anyone know if that money has been repaid ?
