Middlesex are enjoying their first season in the BUCS South Student Rugby League competition, after building on the success of last year’s season, playing several friendlies. Aidan Doherty, the 2011-2012 Rugby League Captain and Scholarship Student at Middlesex, commented, “we have attracted more player’s into the squad this year, many of whom have come into rugby league for the first time this season. There is a real buzz around the training ground and there is real competition for places in the starting 13.”
