Moss
Bank Bulldogs Junior Amateur RLFC are in the third division of the
North West Counties League. They recruit players mainly from the
Carr Mill and Clinkham Wood areas. They have two teams, the under
16's and the under 11's. The team coaches are ambitious and would
like to see the club reach the dizzy heights of the first division.
They've recently been given planning permission to build changing
rooms in the Moss Bank area which it's hoped the whole community
will benefit from in the future.
