🏉 MEMORIAL MATCH | 17TH OCTOBER 2026 🏉

🔴⚫ Brightlingsea RFC vs Witham RFC ⚫🔴

On Saturday 17th October 2026, we’ll come together for a very special Memorial Match against Witham RFC.

This fixture is about much more than rugby. It’s an opportunity for our club, players, families, friends and supporters to come together and remember, honour and celebrate the lives of those who are no longer with us.

Rugby has always been about more than what happens on the pitch — it’s about friendship, family, community and the people who make our club what it is. Days like this remind us of the bonds that continue long after the final whistle.

We invite everyone connected with Brightlingsea RFC and the wider rugby community to join us for what promises to be a memorable and emotional day.

❤️ Remembered always. Forgotten never. 🖤

📅 Saturday 17th October 2026

Please come along, show your support and help us make this a day to remember.

🔴⚫ One club. One community. Always remembered. ⚫🔴
