A tough result, but a performance we can build on. The heads are up, the work continues, and we’ll be back stronger! 👊

🏆 CUP UPDATE HWO🖤💛

Unfortunately, Broughton Park are unable to field a team for Sunday’s cup fixture, meaning our W1XV have been awarded a walkover victory and secured their place in the next round of the Women’s Intermediate Cup! 🏆

We wish Broughton Park the best of luck for the remainder of their season.

Our W2XV are still in cup action, travelling away to face Barker Butts as their Women’s Junior Cup campaign gets underway! 🏉

Let’s get behind the seconds and wish them the best of luck! 🖤💛

Congratulations Lily & Esmee! 🖤💛

A huge congratulations to our Stafford Panthers Captain, Lily Keeling, and Vice Captain, Esmee Talbolt, who both represented North West Colleges in their opening fixture of the season!

The team got off to a fantastic start, securing an impressive 38-34 victory over last season’s champions, City of Oxford College! 🏉

An incredible achievement for both girls and a proud moment for Stafford Panthers. We can’t wait to see what you both achieve next!

Well done, Lily and Esmee! 👏💛🖤

On the rise 📈

Our North West Colleges team kicked off their season yesterday and what better way to start than by beating last season's champions, City of Oxford College, 38-34?!
