First away friendly this weekend, 1pm KO

After the game, all Leith members are invited to enjoy the Ireland v Scotland match in the Wanderers club rooms (5pm KO). Please support our hosts in this if you can.

After 3 home friendlies, Leith hit the road this weekend for the short journey across the city to face Murrayfield Wanderers in a 1pm KO on Saturday.

Wanderers will pose a good test for the Leithers as they play their rugby in East 1, having come down from the national structure last season, and are led by new Director of Rugby, Dale Lyon, who will be looking to take them back up at the first time of asking.

Leith will again rotate the squad as we build towards the start of the season, with playing opportunities for all available players guaranteed, and with the match being played on the 4G surface at the Murrayfield back pitches, a fast-paced game (and a few carpet burns) are also on the agenda.
