Must win game this weekend

Good Morning Ye Mighty Dons!

It's a beautiful day and one to relish - just like this weekend's Wimbledon rugby action - and I'll be honest - it's going to be a cracker! So buckle up - and let's get into the fixtures!

Tomorrow sees a must win game for the 1st XV at home with a 3pm kick off against Old Redcliffians. Both teams need the win to stay up so this is going to be a big one. The Dons have showed some real class in the run up to this one - but every voice from the touchline helps. We are lucky enough for this to be after the VP's lunch - so we are expecting a crowd - however the more we have - the louder the roar. This is also the last home match for the 1st XV - and we have a mini and youth guard of honour to get the proceedings started. So - if you haven't got the message yet - get down to Barham road tomorrow!

Parking for this one will be busy - so please do try and leave your cars at home if you can.

Ok - so we have covered the 1st XV - but that's not all the rugby on offer tomorrow. The 2nd XV travel to Hertford for a 3pm kick off looking to continue their utterly fantastic season. With their final coming up on the horizon - every game counts in the hunt for silverware.

In a similar vein the 3rd XV have their league semi-final tomorrow at Camberley at 3pm. This a great chance for them to avenge last week's result with a full strength team as they run in for their final on Monday 7th.

So that's your action - this weekend. The team sheets are below. It's all to play for. Good luck to all of those in the claret and blue. It's going to be a belter. See you there.

Big love

Badger
