Congratulations to Joe Gwyther, Adam Stoller and Josh Smith for making the County training squad, also Ed Simmons for his inclusion in the 8 man shadow squad. We obviously feel more of our squad should be represented.

Finally, congratulations to our lads at Amery Hill School who won the HSRFU U15 Plate by beating Hampshire Collegiate 22-7 in the final at Winchester RFC on Wednesday 2nd February. A fantastic performance especially after drubbing Sandown High School in the semi-final only last Monday.

See you all for light training on Thursday, have a great week!
