Match Preview

The final home game of the year for the 1st XV sees them host Ellingham & Ringwood RFC, in a clash for bragging rights between the two old foes. Ellingham currently sit just above Sandown & Shanklin in league table, a point separating both sides, and both not in the best of form quite as of late. However, Ellingham did manage to upset promotion hopefuls Millbrook last weekend at home, in a 32-13 victory.

The Hurricanes come off the back of a disappointing loss to Old Wimbledonians RFC in the Junior Vase Competition, yet, they return to league competition this week. With what should be a full strength side, and only hooker Zak Chiverton missing this weekend. It looks set to be a mouth watering encounter, as Sandown & Shanklin hope to get back to winning ways.

Come and support the Hurricanes for the last time at home, on Saturday 16th December, kick off from 1400, with the Bar open from 1400.
