Dukinfield Rugby Club

A day to remember

In a highly anticipated top of the table clash between our 2nd XV and East Manchester we came out as victors and took the spoils of a league victory. The atmosphere was electric with huge crowds down at Blockstages to watch as the top two teams took to the field. The game lived up to every expectation with East Manchester coming out strong and scoring within the first two minutes thanks to some powerful debutants.

The Duki XV kept their composure, hitting back with 15 points of their own. The match was a true back and forth battle, with the lead changing hands five times. In the end our second team held their nerve to secure a 44-33 victory clinching the league title.

A special thanks to the supporters who gathered on the touchline – your support was absolutely epic. Another special thanks to those who helped organise the day, the bar staff for keeping the drinks flowing and our sponsors for their continued support. We hope everyone enjoyed a fantastic day of rugby!
