Scarborough Pirates ARLFC is the name of an amateur rugby league team which competes in the Rugby League Conference Yorkshire Premier and British Amateur Rugby League Association winter leagues. The club is based in Scarborough, North Yorkshire, England. In a joint initiative with Breakaway Sports Tours, the Rugby Football League and Scarborough Borough Council, the club have established a rugby league nines tournament known as the Scarborough Rugby League Festival. ==History== The Scarborough and District Primary Schools under-11s rugby league team, along with Glasgow Schools, was selected to play the curtain-raiser to the 2000 Challenge Cup Final on 29 April at Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh. For several years, under-11s teams from non-traditional rugby league areas were selected by the RFL with the purpose of supporting the promotion of the sport. Enthused parents of the team decided to form the ''Scarborough Pirates'' junior rugby league club soon afterwards, becoming the town's second junior rugby league club following Scarborough Sovereigns. Originally based at Pindar School the club formed a link with the Aberdeen Pub, Aberdeen Walk Scarborough with Landlord Nick Smart, a former rugby league player. The first season concluded with the team playing at under-12s, finishing 5th in the Hull & District League. In 2002/2003, the club moved from its base at the Sunrise on Dean Road, Scarborough onto Scarborough F.C’s, McCain Lounge and the Mere Club, Seamer Road, to eventually returning to the Aberdeen, under new landlord Andy Dolan. At the beginning of 2005 the club introduced an open-age team, which joined the North East Division of the Rugby League Conference. The side incorporated some remnants of the stand-alone Yorkshire Coast Tigers open-age team that had competed in the RLC previously and extended Scarborough's representation in that competition. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Scarborough Pirates ARLFC」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
