Rugby League Auction Tonight at Vine Tree Pub : Tue May 26, 2009 2:25 pm  

For those interested in rugby league memorabilia or for that matter just supporting a good cause:

Two pupils at Outwood Grange School in Wakefield are in the process of fund raising for a trip of a lifetime in Australia. Jamie Robinson and Sam Applegarth, aged 16, who both also play for Oulton Raiders under 16s, are about to embark on a two month excursion to Rockhampton, Queensland.

This is a school scholarship exchange with Rockhampton High School, whereby the boys will stay with Australian families, visit their schools, and play for the school rugby league team aswell as sampling the delights of an Australian culture and lifestyle.

This is all self funded and the latest fund raising event takes place at the Vine Tree Pub in Wakefield on Tuesday 26th May.

The highlight of the entertainment and fund raising evening is an auction with much rugby league memorabilia, including
- a signed, framed Wakefield Trinity Wildcats shirt from 2007
- a signed 2009 Wakefield Trinity Wildcats shirt
- a signed 2009 Hull FC shirt
- a signed 2009 Leeds Rhinos shirt
- a signed 2008 Bradford Bulls shirt
- a signed 2005 Hull FC shirt (cup winners)
- a signed 2009 Leeds Rhinos ball
- a signed 2008 Catalans Dragons shirt
- a 2008 Great Britain tracksuit (v France)
- a genuine signed, framed Wakefield Trinity team picture from 1963 (Turner, Fox, Poynton, Round, Holliday etc)

Plus
- signed 2009 shirts from Manchester United and Barcelona and much, much more.

Auction items shown above have been donated by various clubs and members of the rugby community.
All proceeds go directly towards the boys trip
