Cumbria Cup Game vs Keswick : OFF

Cumbria Cup Game vs Keswick : OFF

Craig Ross2 Nov 2021 - 20:15

Keswick have pulled out of the Cumbria Cup, so no Live rugby this Saturday, but our Senior U18 Colts are hosting Blackburn on Sunday with a 1pm KO

Not a total surprise - so still no Cumbria Cup game at the new Mint Bridge

The Good News is it probably means we are in the Final

No more News (yet) on the Bowdon game - if you know more please share !

There is still action at Mint Bridge this weekend inside on Saturday and outside (and later inside) on Sunday

===

Only four teams will contest the 2021/22 Cumbria County Cup, after the eight top-ranked clubs in the county were invited to take part, but four of them: Carlisle, Cockermouth, Wigton and Kirkby Lonsdale declined the invitation.

The draw for the semi-finals, to be played on Saturday 6 November 2021, was made on 11 October by the competitions committee and is as follows:
* Aspatria (H) v Penrith (A)
* Kendal (H) v Keswick (A)

In the 140 year history of the Cumbria Cup, Aspatria is the most successful with 31 wins. Penrith has won 8 times. Keswick’s 6 wins all came in the nine years immediately after the Second World War and by contrast, Kendal's 5 wins have all been in the last 30 years.

Game on!
