Our first fundraising triathlon saw seven senior teams take part in a 5km run, a lake swim and a 10km bike ride across Beckenham

What a day!

Our seven senior teams raised over £4000 for our club facilities fund on Saturday by taking part in the Budgies Triathlon. Named due to the wearing of budgies (obviously!)

Our winning teams were:
1st Place; Start of a Bar Joke- captained by Andy Knowles
2nd Place; The Budgie Bandits- led by Tom Ward
3rd Place; The Beckenham Bobcats -led by this season Men's 1s skipper Rich Keefe

Teams from all across our senior sections took part, and the photos can be found on our instagram or in our albums here. Well done to all that ran, swam and cycled, we salute you.

Big thank you to John Eaton (Men's DoR who organised the event) and to everyone that helped out on the day.

We hope it will now be an annual event, so watch this space for the announcement of next years event.

As we turn back to rugby now, our senior sections are back and underway at pre-season, the senior men have been back for 2 weeks now, and the ladies start on Tuesday 9th July!

Our Touch Tournament is next up on the 10th August. See news article for more info, and the shop for tickets.
