Members/Players
Following the early end of the rugby season in England as a result of COVID-19, The Rugby Football Union has announced the final league positions.
Proposals from the RFU governance committee to conclude the season for those leagues at both professional and community level were yesterday ratified by the RFU Council.
It was agreed that final standings for the Greene King IPA Championship and men’s and women’s community game would be calculated on a best playing record formula maintaining promotion and relegation for those leagues.
We already knew the fate of the ladies who done an excellent job this season and walked through their league unbeaten. Unfortunately with our senior men’s team we were not 100% sure and knowing how historically there has often been the odd curved ball thrown at the end of a season we are pleased to say Just 2 teams were demoted from S Counties N and not the 3 that had been rumoured, those teams being Didcot and Chesham so we live to fight another day in this league.

No one is sure when we can get back to any sort of normality or even start to think of next season but until we get back up to Abbey kit yourselves fit and more importantly safe
