CALDY recorded their fourth win in five games when they beat Macclesfield 27-22 at the weekend.

Gavin Roberts had a second successive 100% record with the boot as he notched 17 points.

In the first cup tie of two for the senior academy this weekend, they were beaten at Bedford.

Despite the result, the Colts were a credit to the club and their run in the competition has been a sign of good things to come.

Many of the players will progress into the senior teams both this season and next and the club is set to benefit yet again from its fantastic youth development programme.

The third XV won their game at Eagle 31-17 with a good team performance. Rich Broer scored a hat-trick on his return from injury.

On Sunday the Senior Academy got back to winning ways as they beat Winnington Park in the semi-final of the Cheshire Cup.

This was a mammoth effort by the boys, playing two important games in two days, as they won 17-5.

The first XV do not have a game this weekend due to it being Easter but the second XV have a rearranged game against Waterloo.
