League fixtures next season

Here are the our league fixtures for Div 1 next season:

	Sun 28 Sep 08	Letchworth	Grasshoppers
	Sun 12 Oct 08	Bishop's Stortford	Letchworth
	Sun 09 Nov 08	Letchworth	Old Albanians
	Sun 23 Nov 08	Hertford	Letchworth
	Sun 25 Jan 09	Letchworth	Saracens
	Sun 08 Feb 09	Wasps	Letchworth
	Sun 22 Mar 09	Bedford	Letchworth

And what about the opposition?

Grasshoppers are an unknown quantity and won't relish their first taste of League 1 rugby with a trip to Legends Lane.

Stortford are traditionally strong and will be looking to avenge own league and cup double header

OAs at home will be a tough one but we know they are beatable...

Hertford caught us cold last season and we should be confident doing better this season

Saracens have been improving by all accounts but home advantage will be a plus

Wasps are likely to be very tough, our first away trip to Sudbury will be real test

Bedford, like Wasps will be very hard away from home

Bring it on!!

Pre-season training under way

For the last two weeks we have been working on a strength and conditioning program which Muddy has put together - it's based on what our 1st XV squad are doing so with any luck we should get a huge benefit.

We will continue on Wednesdays and Sundays until the end of the month, when we start our on-field unit skills and team play sessions ; Sundays will still be gym work but Wednesday we will be out on the field.

Soooo.. c'mon guys, lets get the fitness levels up and in the bank before the start of the season.
