Saddleworth Rangers
Saddleworth Rangers are an amateur Rugby League side, formed in 1930, based at Shaw Hall Bank Road, Greenfield, Greater Manchester in the Saddleworth district of Oldham. The club has teams at a number of levels from junior to the first team, which competes in the National Conference League Division One. In 1993 they won the National Conference League Premier Division..
The club's ground, which has hosted Rugby League for over 60 years, features a small covered stand and a new clubhouse which was opened in 2016, fundraising included a world record attempt at a continuous game of touch rugby. The Clubhouse was named in honour of stalwart Terry Flanagan MBE, in a ceremony attended by the then Rugby League Chief Executive Nigel Woods and Chief Operating Office Ralph Rimmer.
