Quote ="The Clan"[uSpartans[/u Yes mate, we are a new club and though we've only been formed a couple of weeks there's been an immense amount of work done, things achieved and huge progress made. The facilities are fantastic, we've got a floodlit pitch, 3G, 2x5 a side area and all sorts of other training areas. The dressing rooms can hold up to 86 players at the same time, we've got an equaly big, separate female changing room and shower area. The clubhouse is very welcoming, warm and well appointed and doesn't charge ridiculous amounts. We have free use of a huge function room for fundraising, presentation nights and other events (watch this space WJL). u wanna get some flyer up to eastmoor as if rumours are rite theres a lot wanting to leave !!! We've established club links with Ossett Academy & Outwood Grange (over 5,000 pupils between them). We are in tals to bring a girls team and an U12s, we have ambitions to grow the number of age groups to as many as possible. We've had meetings with Trinity, the RFL and a number of Grant organisations and plans are taking shape for future developments. Our website www.pitchero.com/clubs/sandalspartans is now ranked 30th after just 11 days of being live. We have secured sponsors which now number into double figures. There's loads more, we are ambitious, driven and capable so the opportunities are endless. Most importantly we have a development philosophy that we will enforce uniformly throughout the club and all age groups. We want to win but not at the expense of the following: Athletic Development Rugby League Development Personal Development Respect, Reputation & Integrity Lofty goals, some might say naive but were adamant that we'll do things better and strive to create a club that produces quality players who are in possession of the key skills of the game as early as is possible. If opportunities to play at a higher standard become available to our players we are committed to ensuring that they will not be let down by a culture of poor coaching and pot hunting.'"

Eastmoor Dragons Under 13’s (school year eight) are holding an open invitation training session on Tuesday 15th Janaury at 6.30. We welcome any new players to the sport, players who have been out of the game and want to get back into rugby and anybody who wishes to sample a training session at a different club.

If you, or you know of anybody, who wants to sample Junior Rugby please join us for a training session to experience the greatest game – no experience necessary, just a willingness to learn and have fun in the process.

This will be our first session back after the winter break so I’m sure there must be some lads wanting to put down their games controllers, get some fresh air & burn off the excess chocolate and Christmas pudding !!

Training nights are Tuesday and Thursday 6.30-7.30
