A sunny Saturday saw a good crowd down at the club for the final two men’s games of the season. The results didn’t go our way, but the coach loads of Twickenham fans were in good form as the win secured them top spot in the league and promotion.

Yaz kept us all well fed with another brilliant BBQ, in fact it was so good we are doing it all again this weekend for the women’s final league game with another Saturday fixture against Streatham- Croydon. Kick off is at 3pm so what better way to spend your afternoon than cheering on the women in the sunshine with a beer and BBQ! More info.

With just under 5 months until the city hosts games for the Women’s Rugby World Cup, we are looking for some volunteers to form a group to plan and deliver what we as a club will be doing to maximise the impact of being a host city. Looking for both ideas of what to do, but also for people to be hands on to deliver it. Do you have some time over the summer through to October to help the club? If so, drop me an email on geraldine.brown@hoverugby.club. Don’t worry we won’t expect you to miss the games so if you have tickets, we still need your help!

With a late Easter, bank holidays and teams away touring we are not having our usual last day of youth rugby party but going big on a whole club day on Saturday 11th, with mix touch rugby; BBQ and fun activities for all. Full details including how to register to play are on the website. Celebrate the Season with Hove RFC’s All Club Day.
