Ordered 8 May. Played our first tournament on 13 June without it. Arrived 18 June.

Worth the wait.

In the flesh

A kit always looks different on a person than it does on a screen. This one lost nothing in translation — and the shoulder graphic does exactly the job it was designed to do, which is to be unmistakable from the far side of the pitch.

MANOTAN sit across the shoulders on the back, with Zenith Performance beneath the numbers. We are grateful to have had backing from the very start; plenty of year-one sides do not.

Out of the boxes at last — 18 June 2026.

Next up

First outing in our own colours: the Hamplified Charity 7s at Rugby St Andrews on 18 July. Which turned out to be quite a day.
