Short Change

Sun 13 Oct 2024 11:59

As announced in AUGUST , Eccles RFC will embrace change and, after almost 130 years of white shorts, will adopt navy shorts for all our Junior Girls, Senior Women’s and Senior Men’s teams for the 2024/25 season. The new shorts are now being distributed to membership subs-paid players and will be worn for the first time in fixtures played on the weekend of 12/13 October 2024.

Supporting us in this commitment is sponsor AMW Stairlifts who will appear on the rear of the new senior shorts.  Our Minis, Junior Boys and Colts will switch from white shorts to navy shorts next season.
