After a hard-fought defeat last weekend against a determined Aldershot & Fleet side last Saturday, in the first fixture of the new season, Ben Savill is mixing up his squad for this away fixture and we see a 1st team debut for Henrik Brown who has been a star throughout off-season training.

Fixture cancelled Ventnor RFC 2XV v Portsmouth RFC 3XV 28 September 2024

Ventnor Rugby Club 2XV home game against Portsmouth Rugby Club 3XV cancelled

As reported earlier this week the home fixture was cancelled for Ventnor RFC 2XV v Portsmouth RFC 3XV

Unfortunately this week Portsmouth RFC 3rd XV cried off so there will be no home game for Ventnor Rugby Club 2nds on Saturday.

This is particularly disappointing since – although it was a common occurrence last season – with our 2nds deserved promotion, it was believed that this was going to be a thing of the past.
