Last season a resurgent Sheffield finished 2nd in Midlands Premier behind Newport(Salop) and were subsequently promoted into our league after an absence of 2 seasons (not including 2020-2021).
There is never much in the way of form to go on at this stage of the season but it’s fair to say that Sheffields pre-season results have been very impressive and included convincing victories at Luctonians and Sandal. We expect a very tough match to get the season under away and need as much home support as possible – come along to Tynedale Park and have a great rugby afternoon.
Likely to be in the Sheffield ranks will be ex-QEHS student and ex-Tynedale Colt back-rower Alex Fawdry who has been an outstanding player for Sheffield over several seasons. Welcome home Alex!
