Bristol Harlequins RFC

Both Quins sides are back in action this Saturday afternoon with challenging fixtures awaiting them, as the season continues to build momentum across both leagues.

The 1st XV face a stern test on the road as they travel to Old Sulians, who currently sit second in the league. Playing away against one of the division’s strongest sides will provide a real measure of where Quins stand at this stage of the campaign. With Old Sulians firmly in the promotion conversation, the fixture promises to be a physical and competitive contest, with Quins looking to disrupt their hosts and make a statement away from home.

Meanwhile, Valhalla plays host to an equally demanding challenge for the 2nd XV, who welcome Ashley Down Old Boys II to Broomhill Road. The visitors arrive at Valhalla as current league leaders in Bristol & District 2 and remain undefeated so far this season. It will be a significant test for Quins, but one the squad will be relishing, particularly with home support behind them.

Facing the league’s pace-setters provides an opportunity for the 2nd XV to benchmark themselves against the best in the division, while also aiming to hand Ashley Down Old Boys II their first defeat of the campaign. Matches like these are often decided by fine margins, and the atmosphere at Valhalla is expected to play a key role.

With both matches kicking off at 14:30, supporters are encouraged to get behind the lads wherever possible — whether making the trip to Bath with the 1st XV or heading to Valhalla to support the 2nd XV.

Match sponsorship opportunities remain available for those looking to support Quins and play a part in the club’s continued growth this season.
