Glossop Switch To Yorkshire 1

After countless seasons of league rugby in the midlands Glossop's travel weary players can breathe a slight sigh of relief - we're in the north!

Ideally a move to Lancs and Cheshire would have suited a club with Glossop's geography, and this is still the ultimate goal. For the time being, however, we have been accepted into the north and will play in Yorkshire 1. This will dramatically reduce our travelling to away games - with teams like Sheffield, Bradford Salem and Skipton comprising some of the opposition.

Yorkshire 1 is widely regarded as one of the toughest level 7 leagues around and will therefore provide a stiff challenge. So lets pull together, have a good pre-season and get the club in ship shape for our Yorkshire visitors.
