Yorkshire Coast Rugby Sides in Clean Sweep

Monday, 25 October 2021 09:45

By Charlie Hopper & Andrew Snaith

Scarborough, Bridlington and Whitby's rugby players all won over the weekend.

Scarborough beat neighbours Malton & Norton 25-13 in North One East after an assured performance in both defence and attack.

Matty Jones' men made the perfect start, opening the scoring after just 35 seconds.

It was one-way traffic for the majority of the game, with Scarborough defending resolutely when required.

Kiwi scrum-half Carlos Roberts impressed on debut with Luke Brown returning well in the second row.

Boro will be hoping to continue this form when they travel to Durham City next weekend.

Bridlington kept up their strong run in Yorkshire One with a 64-12 thumping of Roundhegians.

It followed on from their 58-8 thumping of Huddersfield YMCA and they'll hope to make it three in three when they travel to Old Rishworthian, this coming Saturday.

Meanwhile, Whitby ended their barren spell in Durham & Northumberland Division Two with a 36-10 victory over Sedgefield.

The White Leys Road side are slowly starting to get players back after a spate of injuries.

Whitby make the short journey up the A174 to Redcar, on Saturday.
