After last weeks first win of the campaign against Thirsk, Adel were taking no chances away to Bingley Bees who had come back down into Div 2 from Div 1.

Straight after the Bingley pushback, the ball was intercepted by Vicky, who tapped the ball up towards Gabby on Read more…
A busy weekend of fixtures with the Adel fortress holding strong once again as all 5 home teams undefeated and only one team defeated on their travels (the long journey down the road for the Mens 2s to play Leeds University).
