With a break from tradition, the rugby club's annual Cocktail Party that has run for 50 years, will be replaced with a Pre-Season Party for all the family to enjoy.

As a generous gesture, the new President Mr Tim Wray will be providing some food and refreshments for the members at the party, with your chance to meet the President in relaxed and informal surroundings.

There will be a bouncy castle for the kids to keep them entertained during the day, and the biggest beer garden in Ripon to play in!

The party starts at 1pm, so come along and enjoy the day with your family and friends.

FORRC (Friends of Ripon Rugby Club) will be holding a raffle throughout the day. Please can you bring along raffle prizes on the day to help raise money for the club.
