I started the cub when i was 9 years old. Went through the junior's untill i
was 16 then our team folded due to university commitments. I was doing a
apprentiship so i was still able to play so i went down to train with the
adults.  I played in the 2nd team under taff, and ended up getting voted player
of the year 2001-2002.

Then one of my proudest moment was taking Rich Muir's no 9 shirt in the first 15.  I was voted the most improved play of the year 2003 for the first team.

I Started to get a regular start in the 1st's from then on.

Voted player of the year in 2004. This was a bad year for me as i was involved in a car crash, that ended my career at only 21.

I miss the game so much esspecially now all the lads that went 2 uni are back playing and the team is doing very well, with the good mix of experience (Dev, Tower's etc) with young blood the berriman brother's.
I had top time playing at Guisborough Rugby Club making lots of friends, miss playing with you all. Rugby that is.

Favorite moment.

I have loads, Going to Australia for free has to be up there but i always think of one game we Played at Barnard Castle.  We had to win to stay up as we where right down at the bottom of the league.  It was a red hot day.

I don't know where the performance came from but the back row where unreal with Tow, Flinty n Stevie Scott.

Even Lee Rich played well knocking over some very good penalty's.

As we crawled of the pitch in shear exhaustion. 

We were greeted by the legend Col stockdale with his car boot open filld with cans of stella.

Ah mint.  I was wrecked that night but thats one of my favorite moments to.
