Sadly, we have lost many dear friends over the last few years and the club feels it's important to come together, share memories and stay close to those who were left behind by their loved ones.

It's not too late to join the 70 guests who have already confirmed to meet at HDL this Saturday to raise a glass to former players and supporters of Ipswich Rugby Club.

We already have more than 70 guests confirmed and would love to see even more people there, whether you're a supporter, sponsor, coach, player or have just popped down once or twice.

The order of the day looks like:

12.30pm: Meet and greet.

1.15pm: Buffet lunch featuring a raffle and speeches from IRFC Chairman Mike Hancock, Club President Peter Jordan and Director of Rugby Drew Fautley.

2.15pm: Rugby action on the main pitch.

4.45pm: France v England, Women’s Six Nations decider: live on the big screens.

6.30pm: Live music.

Please RSVP to club@ipswichrugby.com by the evening of Thursday 25th April if you intend to join the buffet so we can get catering numbers right.
