DEWSBURY CELTIC
It is important for any club to be able to produce
their own talent, particularly in the current
financial climate and this is an area that they
appear to have covered. It will certainly be
exciting to see how their juniors are able to
develop over the coming years.
In order to help their youngsters to successfully
make the transition into senior level rugby the
club also runs an additional senior side. This
allows them to give players experience of the
adult game even if they are not yet considered
ready for first team action which can be an
important step in the development process.
Another benefit of having an extra side is that it
allows the first team to benefit from far greater
strength in depth. If they are ever left short on
numbers through injury they have the option
of calling players up with a limited amount of
disruption.
Although Dewsbury Celtic has not had a good
season on the field this should not take away
from the work that they have been doing off it.
Their superb approach to developing young
players should enable them to look forwards to
a bright and successful future.
