County Under 20's Championship Durham U20's were put under pressure straight from the kick off, by a Northumberland side whose forwards were too strong for their Durham counterparts. Fortunately Northumberland were not able to press home their superiority, taking a 29 points to 5 half time lead. After the break Durham took the game to Northumberland and in a more even contest looked like the side most likely to score. Northumberland however managed to regained their composure and scored 5 tries in the last quater of the game to win 62-5 The next game is away to Yorkshire on Sunday 12th February 2012 at Ilkley RFC, Kick Off 2:15pm All support would be welcomed See County U20's info	County Under 15's The under 15's is the first real experience of County Representative Rugby Football, and will hopefully inspire these young lads to want to play at each age level.

The change means the scrapping the old Championship system of all 6 counties playing each other and moving to 2 groups of 3, this year East and West and the following year North and South so that all 6 keep in contact rather than have a possible situation where a couple may never play each other again See u20 fixtures	U15 County Championship The Under 15's start their County Programme in early January with trials taking place on the 9th January at East Durham College, Peterlee.
