Saturday 17 July 2021, Letchworth GC Eagles 5 - Broxbourne Badgers1 - PSF, Pixmore
Always nice to 'tick' off a new ground - some hoppers do not count pre-season friendlies but for me they count, rather a competitive game but in the end far too many grounds and far too few games.
The Eagles are part of a larger sports complex, the town sports centre and the Town Rugby Club next door and not far from the County FA Ground. The home club started as just a Youth team, with Jack Wilshere spending some of his youth at the club.
The ground is small, basic but very well looked after, smart clubhouse, fully railed and a small seated stand, a further pitch is on the far side and a nice touch were the shared dugouts.
Football wise, the Eagles are about to start their first season at Step 6 and look like a good footballing side, the Badgers were from the County league and even though they lost, gave a good performance and should do well in their league.
