Women's Army v Navy match cancelled as Navy pull out

The women's Royal Navy rugby league team have withdrawn from this Saturday's Inter Services fixture after being unable to field a team.

They were due to face the Army a week after they battled the RAF in their competition opener – where they lost 24-20. 

The Army announced on Twitter that they will instead be facing Stanningley and West Bowling A.R.L.F.C, who have stepped in to field a combined team in the Royal Navy's place.
