Despite a loss away to Alresford last Saturday, there was much to admire in Ventnor’s performance which included excellent tries by Dylan Gray and Ben Souter.

Meanwhile, Ventnor’s 2nds put on a great performance to draw a hard-fought game against New Milton’s 2nds.

The next match for the 2nd XV is away to Christchurch RFC 2XV on 21st October 2023.

Many thanks to our match sponsors for this Saturday, namely:- BCM, Cridmore Farm,  E3S Consulting,  Hose, Rhodes and Dickson,  Len Down,  Signpost Express, Stubbings Bros, The Sea Pot and Unique Aerospace Ltd.

Also many thanks to Nancy Finan for providing the post match food for the teams.

I hope to see you on Saturday.
