NMSRFR father and son refereeing team Julian and Theo Edwards are getting "on their bikes" to relieve the boredom of the lockdown and raise funds for two important Rugby Charities, The Injured Players' Foundation and the Matt Hampson Trust.

They plan to ride their bikes to every club in the North Midlands before the 1st of September and have set themselves a fundraising target of £1000 for these worthwhile charities.

Redditch RFC was one of the first clubs visited, and the eagle eyed will recognise Julian from the Atherstone match where his good refereeing helped Redditch reverse the first round away loss.

You can follow their progress and see more information on their website at:
