History

  1. Inaugurated in Birstall more than a decade ago, this is how the club got its name.
    For about six years we occupied upstairs premises near the Frontier Club at Batley.
    In February 2011 we moved to Holme Bank Mills, Mirfield where we have a large and comfortable clubroom.
    This has the advantage of being on the ground floor and with easy access.
