A huge day of rugby at the club tomorrow with three senior sides playing at Dillingham Park and an exciting conclusion to the 2025 Mens Rugby Six Nations with France, England and Ireland all in contention for a title. A true “Super Saturday”
Our future stars kick off proceedings at 1200 in the Bedfordshire Cup Semi-Final against local rivals Bedford Blues Juniors on Pitch 4 whilst our Kitchen Crew serve up a St Patricks Day themed feast for our Guests in The Clubhouse!
Gav Williams 1881s look to build on a hard fought 28-43 win away at Esher last weekend as they host Richmond Saxons on Championship Pitch 3 at 1:30. Williams picks a side to give the playing group game team before the Championship restarts next week.
Six Nations action starts at 2:15 with Italy v Ireland in Rome. A big win for Ireland would put them in with a shout of the title subject to results later in the day .
Ampthill Extras host Old Northamptonians in the EMMT at 3pm on Pitch 4 in the final game of the day for the Maroon & Gold Mob!
England travel to Cardiff to face Wales 4:45 – the game will be shown live in both the Clubhouse and The Marquee before the Six Nations wraps up with France hosting Scotland in Paris at 8pm.
