GOLF DAY
The Golf Day has also now had to be cancelled unfortunately. All that registered an interest have been told but this is to make sure that any last minute ‘possibles’ who are checking the site for info know what the situation is.
LIONS MATCH
Contrary to previous posts we have decided that due to the timings of the Lions match and people not being able to get out to the club after work we are not going to be showing this game at the club on the big screens. The 2nd and 3rd tests are defintes for sure. 1st Test is in doubt due to an external function but if we can work something out we will!
Watch this space.
The Park Invitaion Tens has had to be cancelled this weekend, due to a combination of unforeseen circumstances and as a lack of interest from teams in taking part. Everyone just seems to be tired and battle weary from the season, so watch this space for any updates about an event of this kind in the future.

35th Rosslyn Park London Floodlit Sevens
This year’s Rosslyn Park London Floodlit Sevens saw another upturn in the standard of rugby throughout the evening! The winners in the end putting in some quite jaw dropping performances were the Help for Heroes VII, represented by many of the current England Sevens squad.
As well as the final there were some sensational matches throughout, so a huge thanks to all of the teams that took part and made it such a fantastic evening of rugby.
Huge thanks as well to the guys that gave up their time to play in the Exhibition match before the final, playing as the Help for Heroes and Combined Services invitation teams. Another cracking match setting us up perfectly for the main final.
