Ventnor Rugby this weekend with both teams away to Overton RFC and Millbrook RFC
Not the result that we hoped for on Saturday but there was plenty to like in the performance with Harry Ottley having his premiere at fly-half for the 1st XV and Iain Reeves also making his first team debut. Iain’s progression is an inspiration to us all.
Many thanks to Liz for the excellent post-match food.
There’s no rugby at Watcombe tomorrow as both teams are travelling – the 1sts to Overton RFC and the 2nds to Millbrook RFC.
