Lindum match report

The Men’s 1st team woke up on a crisp Saturday morning in what could be a significant day in the promotion race from Yorkshire Prem, with Bradford away at Hull and a bare Adel 11 (12 including the illustrious coach!) for our trip to Lindum. The cold snap helped us with Paul Lewis able to swap coaching duties with playing duties with the cancellation of all home games pushing us up to a more comfortable Read more…

Men’s 3s – Episode VII: The Horse Awakens

Men’s 3s – Episode VII: The Horse Awakens By Jason Jones Our heroes are in a dark place – recuperating from a devastating draw to ancient enemies, Ben Rhydding; their numbers depleted due to key players being poached to fortify their own allies, the men’s 2s, and facing a new, daunting villain: Bradford 2s, pushing for promotion at second in the league, 4 points above the heroic Resistance in fourth.

Men’s 2s Maintain Promotion Push

Sheffield Hallam M5 2 – 3 Leeds Adel M2 After last week’s match report from one senior citizen it falls this week to an even more senior citizen to remember what happened. Unfortunately this is one that will never be forgotten (more of that later).

Leeds Adel HC 3 – 1 Kingston upon Hull HC

Nothing special. Just 3 points. With 11 wins from 11, the Mens 1s continued their run-in to the end of the season with the first of eight remaining games. Big Ben and the boys welcomed third place Kingston-upon-Hull to try and take points off them. Having conceded their only loss to them last season, Adel knew full well that this Hull team were one of the more dangerous sides in the league. Not wanting to Read more…

The Battle of Hogwarts

The 4th team had brought even more subs than usual…   In the fading light of a winter’s afternoon, Matty Potter and the rest of the Gryffindor 5th team were enjoying a leisurely warm-up on the pitch. But then the sky went dark, and a cold, soulless feeling of emptiness and consistency swept across the ground. It was the deathly Pie-Eaters from Slytherin 4, looking to gobble up yet another three points. The Gryffindor boys Read more…
