Crowborough RFC to host Bermuda Rugby

To some it may be a mystery that a local community rugby club such as Crowborough RFC should be selected by Bermuda Rugby as their warm up opponents in their autumn triangular tour, which started last weekend against French Department and “ Death in Paradise “ Island of Guadeloupe, finishing at the end of the month against the might of Gibraltar Rugby.

However to those in the know this comes as no surprise as Crowborough RFC’s well known connections with France’s Montargis and Lege Cap Ferret will testify, but their influence has always been international with the antipodes supplying players such as Crowborough Colt and ex England captain Dylan Hartley and France’s Div 2 Dax centre Billy Ropia, and more recently Portugal where Crowborough and Bulgaria’s ex # 10 Smilko Debrivenich now plies his trade.

Perhaps there really is no mystery, as Crowboroughs reputation as a strong friendly family club precedes it, embodying a Corinthian spirit of loyalty, determination and jealously guarded amateurism, combined with facilities that are rapidly becoming the venue of choice for functions of all kinds; bolstered by pitches that are second to none, prepared by a head groundsman and his a willing band of 15 volunteers.

Whatever it is, it seems to work. Come on down and see for yourself. Kick off at 6:00pm WEDNESDAY 25th SEPT followed by a Hog Roast and full bar. All are sure to receive a genuine Crowborough welcome.
