Worthing mark 100 years of rugby with another victory - picture gallery

Worthing RFC celebrated the centenary of the Club, albeit a year late, and they did in style with a large sun-drenched crowd watching the Red Devils deliver the matchball ahead of a 29-21 win over familiar rivals Bury St Edmunds.

On a lovely, sunny, late summer afternoon and with both teams having won their first game of the season an exciting afternoon of rugby was on the cards. It ended Worthing Raiders 29 Bury St Edmunds 21. The game contained some outstanding rugby from Raiders in the first half and a pulsating contest as Bury fought their way back into the match in the second half. Many thanks to both teams and the supporters for making this a memorable day in the history of Worthing RFC.
