I have to agree that at Rocky is Amazing with with the little ones, Take him there now.

My step daughter started there when she was 3 and loved it, i also know alot of other Cas kids there.

But i would say that when the kids get to 6, 7, 8 they will be better off at either Cas Panthers or (cant beleive im saying this) Lock Lane. Much better development for older kids.

wash your mouth out binksy and get yourself off to confession.

no you are right their are some good coaches at lock lane as well as at the panthers but has you know its parents that ruin teams not kids and coaches.

When i reffed at oulton few weeks ago was amazed at looking at board and who is playing where on what pitch at exactly how many teams they have..they even have stuff like u15s reserves, there set up must be amazing, ref room was massive..and in fact had diffenret room for me and the b team ref, normally if 2 games on we get lumped in same little room.

My young un plays for west bowling and i thought they had a good set up..oulton blows them away.

Having coached in the Pennine league juniors I can say the set up at Brighouse is the best of all out there. Not been to Siddal since new club was finnished thou

The pitches in winter leave alot to be desired at West Bowling but they doo seem to produce great players.
