Local outfit Thamesians Ladies Rugby Football Club has announced a blockbuster fixture for March as the club prepares to host Suresnes, who visit from Paris.

Initially established as a 7s side in 2018, Thamesians LRFC has expanded over the past five years to become a thriving squad of over 20 players who have roared their way to the Women's NC1 division.

The sides blistering form during the 2022/23 campaign saw the Teddington-based team comfortably secure top spot with a record of five wins and one loss which included two 85-0 victories against Harlequin Amateurs Women.
