Lewis and Ewan Succeed in Rugby League

Year 10 Rugby Union players Lewis and Ewan have achieved great success over the summer playing Rugby League. Lewis Lambert (Sefton RUFC) and Ewan Rooney (Waterloo FC) both represent the school and local clubs at Rugby Union but have spent the summer season playing for the newly formed Liverpool Lions Rugby League team at U14. Lewis also captains the team and is a fantastic ambassador for them.

This team have won every game in their division, the promotion play-off series and the only knockout completion they were entered in (the plate), leading to an unbeaten season.

The team has been built with Rugby Union players from schools across the region including boys from Liverpool College, St.Edwards and Bluecoat and their success is especially significant as they are the only Rugby League team in the Liverpool/Sefton area, playing against teams from the traditional heartlands across the northwest. Ewan and Lewis were two of the first players to join the team and helped to build it over 18 months, attracting new players until they had a full squad.

Congratulations to both boys and good luck with the rest of the season!
