Stamford Rugby are getting ready to face old rivals, Oakham Rugby Football Club (ORFC), at a much-anticipated match this Saturday, 25 March 2023.

This comes after the match was postponed on 17 December 2022 due to freezing conditions and hard ground.

The match will be taking place at the Stamford ground, Hambleton Road, Stamford, PE9 2RZ, at 2:15pm, with pre game drinks and food available to pre book.

In one of the last games of the season, the neighbouring teams will face off in what is set to be a competitive afternoon of good local sport

As the league table stands, Oakham are at number 9, while Stamford sit at number 5 - but Stamford are knuckling down in anticipation of a fiercely fought game nonetheless.
