LAST Saturday Old Otliensians welcomed Hornsea RUFC to Chaffers field for the all important playoff for the first promotion spot to Yorkshire 3.

LAST Saturday Old Otliensians welcomed, bottom of the league, Knaresborough to Chaffers field, on what seemed to be the first dry day for a long time.

LAST Saturday Otliensians faced top of the Yorkshire Four table, Aireborough.

OTLIENSIANS’ latest victory cements their unblemished record so far this season, and also marks a new points record, with 128 points scored in a single match.

With a three week hiatus due to waterlogged pitches across the North, Otliensians' squad were hungry for a return to action. On the Friday before the match it was looking unlikely that Knaresborough were going to find a full 15, but all credit to them they managed to locate a few journeymen, who were prepared to don a foreign shirt, and bolster ‘Boro's numbers.

HOPING to continue their winning streak, and keep second place Thornensians at bay, last Saturday Otliensians were welcomed by a convivial crowd at York RI.

IN a highly anticipated clash between Old Otliensians and their visiting neighbours Aireborough, it would be the hosts who prevailed on Saturday with a 29-8 victory.

AFTER being demoted last season, Thornensians RUFC have so far been undefeated in Yorkshire Four, that was until Otliensians silenced the raucous home supporters, with a tremendous performance last Saturday.

AFTER a heavy downfall on Friday, Ensians’ pitch remained up to the ask as they welcomed Hessle for a compelling game of rugby.

LAST weekend Otliensians travelled to Lawnswood to take on Leeds University’s Medics & Dentist RUFC, also known as LMD.
