On Saturday 11th August I will be taking part in the Yorkshire 3 Peaks Challenge, to raise funds for East Leeds ARFL under 13's & under 14's teams.

My Son Bailey has played with East Leeds Rugby Club since he was 5, he is now 13. Rugby is his passion and has been since he was a toddler. Bailey's dream is to become a Rugby League Player and hopefully East Leeds will help him to achieve his dream.

This historic Amateur Rugby League Club founded in 1979 needs your help to raise funds to keep the heart beating in this popular East Leeds Community. We are a self funded Community Club and without events like this. It would be very difficult to carry on.

This club has a proven track record in helping kids realise their dreams by becoming the next generation of professional Super League rugby stars. Our club has already produced one of Super Leagues most prolific players in Danny Maguire.

Your contribution, large or small will help boys & girls from the age of 5 upwards by giving them the opportunity to participate in this wonderful game. Who knows, with your help you could be contributing in finding the next Kevin Sinfield or Danny Maguire.

As with many local Amateur Rugby League Clubs. We are always looking for sponsors or donations. So any help or support you give will be greatly received. Don’t take my word for it, come and see for yourself and see these kids in action. Your kind donation will make a difference.

So please give generously if you can. And I will be doing my part in completing this challenge.
