Wasps FC kick off their 2018/2019 campaign at home this Saturday 8th September V Staines RFC at 3pm, Twyford Avenue

After a positive pre-season with big numbers, new faces and challenging S&C sessions, Paul Britton's side are ready to take on Staines RFC at home this Saturday 8th September at 3pm to kick of their 2018/2019 campaign.

Looking to have a strong season and hoping to be in contention throughout, Wasps have a strong and powerful pack with many players having come through the club, including Serbian International Bojan Ceceric who is moving into the centres this weekend. New faces make up an exciting back line providing the side with a consistent boot for those essential extra points we were missing last season.

Staines are a proud bastion of South West London Rugby and coach Rocky Hudson's team have been consolidating after a few tough seasons. They are looking more stable and will threaten all season.

Coach Paul Britton is excited for the contest "we have a fairly strong team out and only lost by a few points to them last season, so it will be a close and interesting game. We missed a kick that lost us the last game (against Staines), we rectified that challenge and have a strong kicker in place."

Set to be a good battle up front and certainly a closely contested match, get down to Twyford Avenue for 3pm where the bar will be open and all children receive a free hot dog.
