Eastern Counties Rugby Union

Eastern Counties Senior Mens XV begin their campaign in the top division of the Bill Beaumont County Championship on the 6th May at Cambridge RFC, kick off 2.15pm.

This will be followed by another home fixture at Cambridge University's home ground at Grange Rd on the 13th May, again with a 2.15pm kick off.

The final fixture in the pool stages is away to Yorkshire and will be played at Hullionians RFC ground on the 20th May this time with a 3pm kick off.

The aim of the team is to build on last years performances in the cup competition and make it into the top two spots after the group stage, which will guarantee as place the Final of the Cup competition which will be played at Twickenham on Sunday 28th May 12noon, as a curtain raiser to the England vs Barbarians which kicks off at 3pm.

Supporters are welcome at all the fixtures and the team would welcome some vocal support, especially at the away fixture against Yorkshire, who will be looking to reverse the 45-33 defeat they suffered at Grange Rd, in last years competition.
