The latest issue of South of the River (the magazine based on Hunslet RLFC and amateur Rugby League in south Leeds), which is now available for purchase, contains much that will interest the wider Rugby League public as well as the Parksidersโ fans.
ย In addition to focusing on this Sundayโs Coral Challenge Cup tie with Coventry Bears, South of the River contains a review of Hunsletโs impressive three-match winning run in pre-season games, and includes entertaining features by regular columnists such as Pat Benatmane and Steve Boothroyd.
Sam Smith, the Hunslet star who played at hooker when Great Britain won the inaugural World Cup in 1954, is celebrated, and outgoing chairman Neil Hampshire reflects on the clubโs decision to remain supporter-owned – and thereโs a profile of his successor, Hall of Fame member Kenny Sykes.
