Match Report | 2nd XV make Orkney RFC history with first ever league game against Stornoway2/9/2024
Upon arrival, Captain Martin Harper made it clear to the players to not let the occasion get to them and to treat the night as any other to keep their game prep as close as possible to a home game. So naturally the players headed out to the pub until the early hours, making sure the nightlife of Ullapool was as similar as possible to Kirkwall.
Both are at U18 level now and look forward to their scholarship to progress their rugby and the academic year ahead
Everyone at Orkney Rugby Football Club will be following you on your next chapter and wish you both all the very best. We are all very proud of you both!
** We're reaching out to local services and organisations to collaborate in supporting our youth sessions - whether through study assistance, health advice, or any other form of guidance that can help our young members thrive both on and off the field - please contact [email protected] **
