This Saturday Redditch RFC will play host to a Feast of Rugby from dawn to dusk.

The club will be open from 7:45am with Shelley's famous Baps available.

The first match, kicking off at 8:15am will be ENGLAND v AUSTRALIA. They have played each other 50 times. Australia have won 25 times, England 24 and one match was drawn. They have beaten each other in a World Cup Final, but England have won the last 6 matches they have played. Australia's last win was in October 2015 when they booted England out of their home tournament at the pool stage.

There is EVERYTHING to play for!. The losers go home.

If there are any nerves left the World No 1 at the start of the tournament IRELAND take on the might of the NEW ZEALAND ALL BLACKS who have regained the No 1 spot with an undefeated cup run so far. This kicks off at 11:15am.

Later, in a dose of reality, REDDITCH KINGFISHERS v GREYHOUND should provide a good test for both sides. Each have won 2 from 3 so far, with the visitors scoring 60 points or more in their first two wins before going down 48-38 to Five Ways in a rearranged game last week.

On the other field REDDITCH RANGERS v SHOTTERY should provide some light relief if the 1st team match is too tense.

With a giant screen, HD surround sound, and numerous smaller screens, Redditch RFC is THE PLACE TO WATCH RUGBY THIS WEEKEND!
