This Saturday we have the first opportunity to watch the Trafford MV Senior Men's squad on our own turf and we call on all our supporters to get behind the players as we begin our rebuild.
We have some new players in the squad to add more competition but we are also in the holiday period so we await to see the quad selection.
It is great to have some international competition as we welcome Skibbereen RFC from County Cork in Eire to our own MacPherson Park Ground at M33 6LR. We invite all our local Irish Community to join us on the touchline at Trafford MV to give out visiting opponents a feeling of being at home. There will always be a warm welcome from our home fan's as with all visiting teams.
The game will kick off at 2.00pm so that we can all join together and enjoy the Springboks vs All Blacks game on the TV which kicks off at 4.05pm we will be showing on the big screens in the Clubhouse - If you know a Saffa or a Kiwi around Manchester feel free to invite them to watch the game with us in the Clubhouse.
