With a league break last weekend, a number of Bridgwater’s second string found themselves travelling with the first team to play Weston in the Somerset Cup. For those involved it proved to be valuable experience and for others it was a weekend to rest and ease some of the knocks acquired in this years’ campaign […]

This was a superb game of rugby that kept the crowd on its toes throughout. Bridgwater had to make a last minute change when former skipper, Dan Kemmish, was injured at the end of the warm up. George Sluman replaced him with Dave Norman being drafted onto the bench from the 3rd XV match on […]
