*Another home double header for Grove RFC!*

Our 1st XV play Rams 3rd XV this Saturday, after a disappointing result last week against Oxford Harlequin, where moments of individual brilliance stacked the points on the board against Grove. An opportunity to build on the the abundance of positives that Grove took away from this game, such as the incredibly dominant scrum which Quins has no answer for. Our opponents have lost their opening 4 fixtures of the season, scoring 71 points & conceding 127 points to date.

Our 2nd XV play Chinnor IV in their second league game of the season. Grove currently lead the table with an opening game bonus point win. With the odd number of teams on on the league, Chinnor didn’t play on the opening weekend, so currently an undefined team. Grove will look to build on the incredibly positive opening result that showcased all the hard work that was put in during pre-season.

We looking forward to seeing as many of you on the touchline cheering the lads on, as we aim to get another double header double win!

Then to follow we have RWC fixtures Fiji Vs Georgia at 4:45pm & Scotland Vs Romania at 8pm, which will be shown at the clubhouse! There is also a Superhero themed club social & a beer pong competition to look forward to.

!! Keep your eye out for the starting XV to be announced !!
