WARRINGTON Rugby Union Football Club's under 11s side were runners-up in the Blackpool Rugby Classic.

They conceded only one try in three days of qualifying matches against teams from across the country.

Their solid defence earned them a final appearance against Preston Grasshoppers, who came out on top in a tightly fought game.

Thomas Arnold, Luke Moss and Lewis Roberts were outstanding for Warrington throughout the tournament.

Meanwhile, Warrington's under nines had two games over the Easter period against sides from Fylde RUFC and Preston RUFC.

They drew both games thanks to tries from Sam Roberts and Sam Nichols.

Next up for all of Warrington's mini and junior sides is the Wrexham Rugby Tournament on Sunday.
