Kendal 1st XV will face Preston Grasshoppers in the North Premier League for the inaugural, historic match on Saturday 30 September 2017

After much work juggling all senior fixtures to match the availability of our New Facility, it is now finalised that the 1st XV will face long-standing and respected local Lancashire rivals 'Hoppers' in what will be a tough home match, against a team that Kendal first encountered in an away fixture on 31 December 1905!

That result ended in a 3-3 draw...

On a historical note, K.R.U.F.C. was only formed a few month's earlier, after a meeting on 25 August 1905!

So this will be the historic FIRST EVER fixture played at our new home and will have something of a 'local derby' feel, so please invite your friends and let's cheer the lads on to a memorable WIN!

Saturday 30 September, Kick-off 3pm
