Barrow Raiders

Barrow Raiders are a British rugby league team from Barrow-in-Furness in Cumbria. In 2005 they will play in National League One, having finished 2004 as National League Two champions. Barrows home ground is known as Craven Park. It was built in 1931, largely as a result of the efforts of supporters, 500 of whom volunteered to construct the ground. It is named after Commander G. W. Craven, a local war hero, who was instrumental in the construction. Until 1995 the team was simply titled Barrow RLFC, but they adopted the nickname Barrow Braves to coincide with rugby leagues switch to a summer season. In 1997 they merger with Cumbrian rivals Carlisle Border Raiders to form Barrow Border Raiders. The new team played all its matches in Barrow; the merger was essentially a financial arrangement only. In 2002 the Border part of the name (never that relevant to Barrow, which is in south Cumbria) was dropped. Barrows colours are blue and white.
