The Saints were a new team, entering the new EBL4 in 2006. Though they had no direct affiliations with any other team, a large proportion of the membership was drawn from players who were with Arrows the previous year.
Finished as runners-up to Leeds Met, on the head-to-head, and reached the Championship Final, where they lost narrowly to Brookes Sport Oxford. Promoted at the first attempt.
Finished as runners-up to Leeds Carnegie, again, in Division 3 North. Also reached the Championship Final, where they renewed their rivalry with Leeds, only to lose narrowly again. This time they declined the opportunity of promotion.
