Squad for Old Boys
Anth Carr
Colts Player of the Year Anthony Carr and his team mates are lined up for their first taste of senior rugby in the warm up game at Mayfield Park tomorrow. Kick off 3.00p.m. The game will be divided into 20 minute sessions and the management has already pencilled in the teams for the sessions.

 

All of the lads who took part in last night's training session will be involved with the exception of skipper Tim Sawyer [right] who has a niggling knee injury and new centre Tom Steele who is unavailable. Durham students Tom Rance and Ed Britton are expected to take part.

Carr who is a prop and Carl Miller [below], a flanker, are already knocking on the first team door along with several others

Younger players, such as fly half Paul Moss and centre Paul Miller, will also get a run out. This year the RFU has ruled that players who are 17 years and above can sign on for clubs but can't play in the front row until they are 18. But there's no desire to rush Kev Young's squad into too much senior action. There are a number of Colts games lined up for Saturdays together with Under 18's competition on Sundays.
The lads are training with the First team squad so that there will be continuity as they mature into potential first team players.
