Our seniors host Salisbury in their final pre-season fixture ahead of the 2026/27 season. 

Following last weekend’s narrow victory Basingstoke over in the seniors second pre-season outing, the squad return to Ganger Farm to take on Salisbury this afternoon. Kick-off is at 3pm.

Having benefitted from the experience of former New Zealand Technical Director Nico Le Roux leading their training session on last week, Jason Berry’s squad will be looking to continue working on their shapes and structure ahead of the 2026/27 league campaign.

1st XV coach Jason Berry’s pre-match thoughts:

Berry: “The message we’ve sent to the players is to trust the process, keep working on the shape, trust that it’s going to work.

“If it doesn’t work, this is what pre-season is about, getting it right or getting it wrong even and fix it.”
