2010 - 11 Season - Under 13's
The squad made the big leap to the 15 a side game on a full pitch and found the going tough against some experienced sides especially when they had no subs to call on. As the season progressed a few new players joined the squad but still struggled to turn out a settled side. They have improved considerably since James Clarke and Ben Robinson took over the coaching reins but some of the new players have not played much rugby so there is plenty of work to do developing this raw talent. With a number of inexperienced players several only started playing rugby this season the wins were hard to come by playing sides that have been together since under 7's but progress is being made. The players are keen as mustard and if they can recruit a few experienced players the results will follow.
Under 13's playing record P 16, Won 7, Lost 9, D 0, F 310, A 412

2009 - 10 Season - Under 12's
Last season as under 11's the squad had merged with the under 12's, but this season they are running as a seperate under 12's squad. With a squad of 10 players we will be looking to recruit a few more players to run a full squad.

Since the start of the season the squad has grown steadily and we now have 15 players. Ben Robinson who plays for the 1st XV and parent Mark Wade now help Mick with the coaching. Just after Christmas Friday evening training sessions (6:00pm - 7:00pm) were introduced and the squads performances are starting to improve.

Review of 2008 - 09 Season - Under 11's
The under 11's only had 10 players this season which meant they were unable to play regular fixtures so we merged the squad with the under 12's to form an under 11/12 development squad.

This season they move up to play midi rugby with 12 players in the team. The scrum now has 5 players with the introduction of a second row and 4 man line outs. During the season we will look to recruit and develop more under 11 players. Ideally we would like to build a squad of 15 players. The under 11's have a new coach this season Mick Bruce, who will work with Andy Day to coach both the under 11's and 12's. Andy coaches the forwards and Mick coaches the backs. Any new players who would like to play midi rugby are very welcome to come down to Copley on Friday evenings pre season or on Sunday mornings when they are training or have home games. Please look at the fixtures list to check the minis are at home.

There were good displays away at Wharfedale and Cleckheaton and at home to Baildon and Skipton Perhaps the most pleasing result was the last game of the season against Keighley. Back in January they lost 0-35 but turned the table with a 7-5 victory. Considering they playing games against u12 sides they have performed well.
