"The club's Junior and Youth Sections run teams for all age groups from Under 8 to Under 18.  In an area with more than its share of social and economic problems, the club provides an opportunity for young people of both sexes to develop healthy lifestyles as well as life skills such as team working, leadership and respect for others that will enable them to become valuable members of the community in adulthood.  The sponsorship you have given my son, Richard, has enabled him to progress towards his ambition of playing professional rugby league and he is now a member of the Sheffield Eagles reserve team.  Richard also plans to give something back to the Lock Lane club by coaching one of the younger age groups next season."
