Playing Highlights


Mens 1st XV

The table below shows theresults for the season for the 1st XV. Over time I will try to capture lower XVs but it is a long job – so any help appreciated.

Sadly – very few actual results for this year and just an indication of W/L/D for most, if not all, of the games.

  1. Hi, very interesting website. R. L. Jenkins is me, Robert Jenkins, and not my late brother Richard a former chairman of the club. Great to see so many familiar names from the past, many whom have moved on to that rugby field in heaven or somewhere else.

    I have lived away from Hove since 1972 but still look at the results from time to time. Had a great time there as a player.
