[edit] How It All Started

Crofton Cougars Amateur Rugby League Football Club was formed in the village of Crofton near Wakefield in 1996 by Pete Storey and Andy Reed with a helping hand from Shoana Muir (Secretary), Graham Dodson, Lesley Reed and Sam Markey (Chairperson). The initial plan was to merge with Crofton ARLFC but this proved unacceptable and Crofton Cougars junior ARLFC came in to fruition as a separate concern.

[edit] Recent Success

With Stu Moran as coach 2007 proved to be a great year for the Cougars with the year seeing the club being promoted from CMS Yorkshire League Unison Division 2 as champions and as the Wakefield Buildbase Cup 2007 winners.
