Flooding forces relocation of senior regional trials

This venue change only applies to the senior (ie. adult) trials.
Junior (U14 and U17) trials will still be going ahead at Ely RFC .

Flooding at King's School, Ely means that the East Region senior trials will have to move - again. The pitches and other grass areas at the school are under water following yesterday's weather and will not be fit for use for at least a fortnight. Its incredibly unlucky for the East's women players as the same thing happened for their first trial in December.

Fortunately (unless there is another serious deterioration in the weather) Letchworth Garden City RFC - who also hosted the rearranged first trial at short notice - should be able to host again (see map below for directions)

It is appreciated that this is not ideal, especially for players coming from the north-east of the region, but Letchworth is the nearest club to the centre of the region willing to host the trial - and the policy of the region has always been to have trials as near to the centre as possible.
