Head coach John Lacey has announced his first match day squad for tomorrow’s game against Henley Hawks at their Dry Leas ground.

There are several new faces on the team sheet as preparation for the 2019/20 season begins in earnest.

On naming his side, Lacey said “it feels like a long time since we first gathered at Hazelwood for a squad meeting prior to our launch.

The boys have bought into what we are trying to do and I enjoyed the last 8 weeks immensely.

We’ve improved as individuals and as a group and we’re a little ahead of where we expected to be, at this stage.

I can’t wait to see how we go against Henley, they’re very ambitious and are talking about promotion. That will make our task even harder. The boys have risen to the challenges we’ve set, so we’re looking for a performance tomorrow rather than a result.

Director of Rugby, Eddie Fraher said “It’s been great to see the numbers at training and the energy the boys are putting in. The feeling around the place is excellent.

We had a hard time last season but this is a new chapter, and a clean slate for everybody. We can’t wait to get going”.

Tomorrow’s game kicks off at 3:00pm and will be split over 4x20min quarters.

We’d love to see as many supporters as possible to give the lads a cheer.
