Reivers, North of England 65s and 70s

The Reivers games are now scheduled for 30th January, though pitch times have still to be confirmed.  The pitch is at CA7 9QT, next to Wigton Rugby club.

This is a regular fixture played in good spirit and quite often we are offered a pleasant buffet meal afterwards to socialise however this will be affected by whichever new normal applies at the time.

Reivers have asked us to provide a team of over 65s and a team of over 70s.
