Training numbers have been good throughout the Summer, with exciting new additions to the club, as well as an increased level of commitment and enthusiasm from current players.

We have enjoyed 2 successful pre season wins (Home Vs Stroud 43-14 and awayo to Cheltenham North 50-13) which has given the players plenty of confidence, however they are aware the real rugby starts this Saturday as we open our league campaign with a challenging visit to Old Richians.

Selection for the 1st game of the season will be tough, with many players putting their hands up to be picked. Hopefully we can maintain a healthy squad size and competition for places across all positions.
