New look team for the 2017-18 rugby season.

York RUFC’s “Cavaliers” team has a proud tradition of rugby at Clifton Park dating back decades. But with player numbers dropping off lately, a new look team is being launched for the coming 2017-18 rugby season.

The aim is to play social rugby in the Yorkshire Central Merit Table against similar teams from across the local area.

Captain for season 17/18, Chris Clegg, said ‘The Cavaliers have a great tradition of social & veterans’ rugby but we have lacked the numbers we need recently. We want to rebuild and once again make the “Cavs” the team in which players of all ages and abilities can come together and have fun playing the great game of rugby union!’
With friendly fixtures most weekends starting in late September, the Cavs will also enter local veterans’ tournaments to give the season a competitive element. Chris continued ‘Rugby is a great way to keep fit and there is a place for everyone on the pitch. The facilities at Clifton Sports Club are second to none, with 20 acres of pitches and a welcoming club house for players and their families alike. With plenty of socials organised we will be as active off the pitch as on it – and partners and kids will be very welcome too.’

Anybody interested in playing for the “Cavs” should get in touch with Chris via York.cavaliers@outlook.com or by ringing the club on 01904 623602.
