Final Score: Cramlington Rockets 14 – 56 Catterick Crusaders

Catterick Crusaders delivered a statement performance on the road as they overpowered Cramlington Rockets 56-14 in a commanding display on Saturday.

From the opening exchanges, the Crusaders were in complete control, asserting themselves both physically and skillfully across the park. Their forward pack laid a dominant platform, consistently winning the battle in the middle, while the backs capitalised with sharp, fluent attacking play.

The Crusaders’ defence was equally impressive, repeatedly shutting down Cramlington’s attacking efforts and forcing mistakes that were swiftly punished with points at the other end. Even when the Rockets managed to cross the line, Catterick’s response was immediate and emphatic, never allowing the home side to build any momentum.

What made the victory even more satisfying for the travelling supporters was the performance of the club’s debutants. Several new faces took to the field for the first time in Crusaders colours, and they rose to the challenge, bringing energy, confidence, and no shortage of quality to the team’s effort.

It was a dominant, all-round team performance that highlighted the depth, physicality, and skill within the Crusaders’ squad. With this result, Catterick continues to build strong momentum heading deeper into the season.
