Thornhill Trojans are organising a reunion to mark the 10th anniversary of the defeat of Sheffield Eagles at the Don Valley Stadium writes Andrew Byram.

In 2000 Thornhill Trojans beat Sheffield Eagle 16-14 in the 3rd Round of the Silk Cut Rugby League Challenge Cup.

The reunion will be held on Saturday 6th February 2010 at Thornhill Sports & Community Centre at 7:30pm.

The Thornhill team which beat Sheffield Eagles was:
Coach - Johnny Harpin
Andrew Smith Barry Drummond Jimmy Gittins Jason Firth Andrew Field Martin Fox Ian Bates Steve Naylor Rob Simpson Rob Hoyle Anthony Broadhead Chris Woodcock Sean James Subs: Richard Sedgwick Sean Senior Abe Phillips Tony Allerton

The club hopes that all the all the players and coaching staff from this team will attend. The club has lost contact with some of these players so an appeal is going out to the Rugby League public to help track these players down.

On the same evening there will be a renunion of the Thornhill Trojans Under 13s team which beat Sheffield Schools in a curtain raiser to the main game. The Thornhill team that day contained future professional players Luke Haigh and Danny Ratcliffe. All Under 13s players from that day are urged to attend this reunion.
