UNBEATEN LEAGUE LEADERS HEAD INTO THE LIONS’ DEN!

Played every game. Won every game.
Sevenoaks 2nd XV arrive at the Drill Field this Saturday sitting top of Counties 1 Kent with a perfect record. But the Lions have other ideas! 🦁

After a hard-fought 21–21 draw away at Park House, Deal & Betteshanger are back on home turf and ready to take on the division’s pacesetters!

💥 Some welcome firepower could be returning too! Crowd favourite Joe Michael is in line for his long-awaited comeback, with Oscar Furneaux and Matt Holbrook also potentially back in contention.

Sevenoaks may arrive as favourites, but reputations count for nothing once that whistle blows!

🎃 AND IT’S HALLOWEEN! 🎃

The fun doesn’t stop at the final whistle! Join us straight after the match for DJ Robbie Herbert spinning the tunes, Halloween fancy dress and some spooky family fun! 🎶👻🕺

🏉 Saturday 31st October
⏰ Kick-off 2.30pm
📍 The Drill Field, Walmer

The league leaders have an unbeaten record to defend. The Lions have a point to prove.

Get down, get loud, stay for the party and ROAR ON THE LIONS!

We’re sorry to mention the C word so early, but after the success of last year some of you have already been asking if we will be running our wreath making event again this year with the lovely Liz, and the answer is YES!

So gather your friends, sort your Christmassy snacks, and book now with Wes Bull for Tuesday 8th December, or Thursday 10th December to secure your spot.

Hurry, numbers are limited!

LIONS ROAR BACK HOME WITH TEN-TRY VICTORY!

Deal & Betteshanger 62 – 31 Crowborough

What a way to kick off our first home game of the season! 💪

After three consecutive away fixtures, the Lions returned to The Drill Field in style, running in 10 tries in front of a fantastic crowd of around 350 supporters!

Sporting their brand-new kit for the first time, the boys put on a brilliant attacking display, with tries from Hart (2), Browne (2), Twyman, Morgan, Lockett, Best, Georgiou and Thatcher.

Huge credit to Crowborough, whose young side battled hard right to the final whistle. 👏

Off the pitch, 40 guests enjoyed a cracking pre-match lunch, making it a brilliant afternoon of rugby, food and club spirit!

👏 A massive thank you to our sponsors:

🏉 Match Day Sponsor: D Best Carpentry Ltd

👕 New Kit Sponsors:

Your support means so much to the club and helps keep grassroots rugby thriving! 🖤🤍

A fantastic homecoming, a winning debut for the new kit and a great day for the Lions!

UP THE LIONS! 🦁🖤🤍
