Important Information for the Castore Ilkley Summer 7s this Saturday 5th July!

Firstly, we’ve had a Mens Open team unfortunately drop out so we are looking for players (or a team if possible) to create a Babaas squad to fill in the missing spot. There are already a few great players but we’re looking for a few more so please either DM IRFC or @og.sevens to help out the tournament.

For tickets, there is still time to get your ticket from Eventbrite for £8.50 here https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/1318703540789?aff=oddtdtcreator or if you’re paying on the day it is £10 on the door. Over 65s and Under 16s free entry!

Upon entry you will be given a wristband, which you must wear for the full duration of your time at the 7s Festival. If you’re not wearing a wristband you will be asked to purchase a ticket on sight.

Your wristband also gets you access to Yard for the official Ilkley Summer 7s After Party.

Check out the event map for the facilities and pitch numbers on the day.

Also we’ve shared our Order of the day, kicking off the first match just after 10 and finishing the last final just after 18:30.

Don’t forget to get your Eventbrite ticket before midnight 4th July.

We’re looking forward to seeing you all there!

Sam Bowers is our next 2024/25 Club award winner, bagging this year's 2nd XV Most Improved Player! 🏆

Sam’s progress this season has been all down to the work he’s put in. He sought advice from the S&C team, showed up consistently to training, and committed fully to improving his game.

That effort paid off as he became a regular starter for the 2s and played a big role in locking down the scrum. A standout year, and plenty more to come. 👏👏👏

Next up in our 2024/25 Club award spotlight is our Clubman of the Year, Harry Smith! 🏆

Harry started the season facing a tough spell on the sidelines, but he didn’t let that slow him down. Instead, he used the time to get into the best shape of his life and found new ways to support the club off the pitch, from writing match reports to helping behind the scenes on game days.

His hard work and attitude paid off, returning late in the season to run out for the 1st XV once again.

A class example of what being a Clubman is all about. 👏👏👏

Ed Brown is our next 2024/25 Club award winner taking home Coaches’ Player of the Year! 🏆

Ed came out of retirement this season to step in at 9 when the team needed him and it turns out, he had plenty left in the tank.

Far from just filling a gap, he went on to have one of the best seasons of his career, finishing as one of the club’s top try scorers and playing a key role week in, week out.

It’s been a massive season for Ed, and we’re all hoping that retirement gets pushed back just a little longer! 👏👏👏

Our next 2024/25 Club award winner is our Players’ Player of the Year, Ben Magee! 🏆

A constant presence in the squad and a real leader on and off the pitch, Ben’s impact this season has been huge. As Vice Captain and a Yorkshire-capped player, he’s set the standard.

He’s come up with big moments when it’s mattered most, regularly crossing the try line and turning games when we’ve needed it. His consistency, leadership, and ability to deliver in key moments made him an obvious standout this season. 👏👏👏

Here's to our next 2024/25 Club award winner, Trainer of the Year, Joe Paton! 🏆

Joe set himself the goal of breaking into the 1st XV this year and he knew he needed to work hard on his game to make that a reality. Joe left no stone unturned to make it happen.

From arriving early for extras on the pitch and in the gym, to seeking advice from coaches, he showed true commitment all season long. Hard work paid off, and he achieved his goals. We’re buzzing to see where next season takes him - keep it up Joe! 👏👏👏

Jack Popely won our 2024/25 Club Most Improved Player award and it was certainly deserved! 🏆

Jack made the sudden and dramatic transition from front row to scrum half this season. He learnt an incredibly complex position quickly and balanced playing both positions this year to accommodate his team. A hard-working and committed player through and through! 💪💪

Next up in our summer spotlight on the 2024/25 Club award winners, it's our 2nd XV Player of the Year, Charlie Lowrie! 🏆

With a background in both rugby league and union, Charlie made the rare switch from Head of Medical to on-field force this season – becoming a key figure in the 2s squad. A huge shift, and a huge impact. We can’t wait to see what next season brings! 👏👏👏

We're kicking off a summer spotlight on our 2024/25 Club award winners with our 2024/25 Man of Steel winner - Ollie Ham! 🏆

Ollie started his rugby career playing Junior rugby at Ilkley and has caps for Yorkshire U21s. This season he battled through injury and untimely set-backs to punch above his weight against his opposition in the front row. Thoroughly well deserved! 👏👏👏

Some cracking shots from @nikhartleyphoto at the 2024 @rugby4respite Ilkley T5s Tournament where everyone raised an incredible £5,000 for @principletrustcc - This year, on April 27th we're aiming to smash that and raise even more.

It’s now less that two weeks to go until the @rugby4respite Ilkley T5s Tag Rugby Tournament, and the referee’s whistle will soon blow to kick things off! There’s still time to get in on the action! 🌟

While the competition heats up on the field with fast-paced 5-a-side tag rugby (adapted from the RFU’s U8 laws), there’s plenty of fun off the field too. With a village fair atmosphere and the club’s fabulous clubhouse providing food and drinks, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.

All proceeds raised on the day will go to support @principletrustcc, helping make a difference in the lives of children across Yorkshire in need. Last year we raised over £5,000 and this year we want to raise even more for such an important cause!

Get down to Stacks Field on the 27th April to support!
