RAMS appear to be the first Berkshire Club to announce forthcoming fixtures and will play their first matches in more than a year when they take on Chinnor in two fixtures next month (May).
The home-and-away double-header will see our neighbours visit Old Bath Road on Saturday, May 22, before we head to Kingsey Road the following week.
The matches will be played under the RFU’s adapted laws, which mean there will be NO scrums or mauls permitted.
“We’re really excited and it’s great Chinnor want to have a couple of games in what are always good local derbies. It should be fun.”
Director of Rugby, Seb Reynolds
The two sides played out two epic National One encounters last season, with Henry Bird’s thrilling last-minute score earning Rams a 27-21 home win, while we also held on for a 21-18 success despite a thrilling Chinnor comeback under the Friday night lights in the away clash.
Subject to the Government moving to the third stage of the roadmap out of lockdown on May 17, it is hoped we will be able to have some supporters at the games.
More details on this will be available in due course.
