The Blackpool Panthers held an Easter Holiday Community Rugby Camp at South Shore Cricket Club Home of Blackpool Scorpions. The Camp was a great success with over 20 children taking part. The kids really enjoyed themselves and learnt kicking, passing and tackling skills.

The kids each received a free goody bag with Season Ticket and a Panthers training top inside.  Panthers would like to say a big thank you to sponsors Subway and NHS for helping make the camp a success.

Blackpool Panthers have found two helpful and hard working pupils from Ribby with Wrea Primary School. The lucky student has received a FREE Blackpool Panthers Rugby League Football Club 2010 Junior Season Ticket.

The winner was Beth Needham. The School held a competition for the tickets where the children had to write in to say why they wanted/deserved the tickets. Beth in Year 5/6 class won both tickets as she entered by herself and wrote about her friend whose dad enjoys Rugby League and wanted to take his daughter to local matches.

WELL DONE BETH AND KEEP UP THE HARD WORK FROM PAUL BALLARD PANTHERS WINGER!!!!

Panthers are still looking for more star pupils so please get in contact with your school P.E. teacher if you think you have been working hard at school.
