D & W u20s

The Twin Counties under 20 squad held a training session at Bryanston School Blandford in preparation for their forthcoming RFU Under 20 County Championship campaign.



Next Sunday the side play the first of their three  warm up matches in Portsmouth against the Royal Navy Under 20 side with two further fixtures on Sunday the 6th of November against the RAF at Trowbridge and finally against Hampshire at Bournemouth on Sunday the 22nd of January.
The Twin Counties RFU championship pool games kick off on the 4th of February against Somerset away then on 25th of February they host Devon at venues still to be decided.




It’s still not too late for Dorset and Wilts clubs nominate players to attend further sessions, for the two successful counties who progress into the final, a run out onto the hallowed turf at RFU headquarters is the prize as the competition climaxes with a Twickenham final.



The Dorset & Wilts Under 20 contact is Mike Samms 07967 136352 and amsie1@talktalk.net
