Eastern Counties Rugby Union

The Rugby World Cup Trophy visited Eastern Counties on the 11th and 12th of August, appearing in Lowestoft, Ipswich, Colchester and Cambridge. We estimate that over 3,500 people had their picture taken with the Cup while others came along to take part in the various activities and festivities.

One of the highlights of the two days was a display by The Red Devils Parachute Regiment display team who delivered a match ball to Colchester RFC. Click for video
