At the end of the 2013/4 season, league officials decreed that Bridgwater had used an unregistered player in a match against Wadebridge Camels in March. Despite a club appeal – the player was a paid up club member but was on the inactive player list – we were deducted five match points. As a deduction […]
Match report by Tony Pomeroy This was a scintillating game of rugby – a ten try fiesta – with Bridgwater taking the spoils and leap-frogging Camborne into third place in the league. This was Bridgwater’s sixth consecutive league victory and the ninth in total in the first half of the season. Bridgwater made only one […]
Match report by Tony Pomeroy Bridgwater kept up the pressure on the league leaders with this their fifth consecutive league victory. The visiting spectators – who outnumbered the home supporters – described the win as ‘not pretty but we’ll take it’ and this just about summed up the game. Bridgwater were still missing Nick Spellissy […]
Weston Super Mare 43 – BARFC 20 (29/11/14) League status eventually held sway as the seasiders achieved bragging rights with this win over their neighbours. Bridgwater fielded a somewhat experimental side, giving debuts to winger Drew Shaw and second row Tom Lewis. They also welcomed back Rob (Dolphin) Thompson for his first 1st XV […]
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 […]

Cullompton remain rooted to the foot of the table. Cullompton belied their league status with a powerful start which saw them take the lead with a […]
Match Report by Tony Pomeroy Bridgwater will be very satisfied with the five point haul from this match. However, they made hard work of the victory, with coach, Kevin Innalls metaphorically tearing his hair out as the visitors went to sleep a little during the second half.Bridgwater brought James Brakes back on the wing as […]
Match report by Tony Pomeroy Bridgwater brought in Garryn Basson to replace Rob Allen, injured at North Petherton last week and re-instated Ollie McGeown, now recovered from injury, at scrum half. Adrian Tew also joined the front row to replace Joe Bussell. This was a nail-biting game for both sides. Cleve will be well satisfied […]
Heavy thundery rain in the hour before the kick off may have kept many spectators away but the 682 who attended witnessed a typical local derby with no quarter given or asked. Bridgwater will be regretting their missed chances that cost them victory and bragging rights over their near neighbours. Bridgwater’s kicking boots had been […]
