Weekend Preview: Southport RFC

Southport RFC5 Feb - 17:00

It’s another action-packed weekend for Southport Rugby Club, with plenty of games home and away for our teams. Here’s what’s in store:

Saturday
The First XV are on the road as they travel to Thornton-Cleveleys RUFC, looking to put things right after last weekend’s defeat at Oldham. The team will be determined to bounce back with a strong performance.

The Second XV also hit the road, making the journey to Kirkby Lonsdale RUFC. A bus has been arranged for the squad and any spectators who wish to travel and support the team - let’s get behind them!

While there are no home games on Saturday, the clubhouse will remain open for a fantastic afternoon of Six Nations rugby on the screens. Join us to watch:

  • Italy vs. Wales – Kick-off at 14:15
  • England vs. France – Kick-off at 16:45

Sunday
This Sunday promises to be an exciting and busy day for SRFC, with our Mini & Junior teams in action, the Ladies and Colts on the road, and the Third XV set for action too.

Our young stars will face off against Sefton RUFC. The U7s, U8s, U9s, U10s, U11s, U13s, and U15s will all be playing at home, while our U12s make the short journey along the M57 to Sefton. It’s set to be a fantastic morning of junior rugby, showcasing the future of Southport RFC. A highlight of the morning will be the U16s hosting Bury RUFC in the Lancashire Vase Quarter-Final on the main pitch. This game kicks off at 11:00 AM and promises to be a thrilling encounter, as it’s a repeat of last season’s Lancashire Bowl Final, which saw Southport emerge victorious. Let’s get behind the boys and cheer them on to another big win!

Our Ladies squad returns to action as they travel to Kendal, looking to complete a season double after their 22-10 home victory earlier this season. It’s sure to be a hard-fought contest, and we wish them the best of luck on the road. Colts set to face Trafford MV in their penultimate league clash of the season, in their previous encounter in December, Southport secured a 29-12 victory over Trafford MV and as the league season approaches the conclusion, the team is eager to replicate this success and finish strong.

Following the U16s' match, make sure to stay and support our Third XV as they take on Leicester Medics RUFC at 1:00 PM. The Medics are on tour in Liverpool, and this promises to be a competitive and entertaining fixture.

To round off the weekend, join us in the clubhouse for another huge Six Nations clash with Scotland vs. Ireland – Kick-off at 15:00.

It’s set to be an exciting weekend for everyone at SRFC. Best of luck to all our teams! #UpThePort
