What a game. What a day. Read on for all the excitement. It was a cold day in Southwest London as the 1XV turned up to face top of the table Battersea Ironsides. Due to poor weather in 2022, this was the first time the sides were facing each other this season so there was […]
Last Sunday Hammers 2XV took the short-ish trip to Chesham, playing a team that haven’t come up against a Hammers Women’s squad for a good few seasons. We’re adjacent in the table so we knew it was going to be a tight game, but as always the aim was to enjoy ourselves, playing good and […]
Only 2 hours before beers were being drunk and a very out of tune rendition of Gerry Cinnamon’s ‘Belter’ poured out of changing room 6, there was a huge task ahead of the men in red at Fortress Hurlingham. On a slightly warmer Saturday, 2 weeks after a 1-point loss to Old Priorians, Hammers were […]
Two clubs, both alike in league, In fair West London, where we play our scene, From an ancient Hammers home win break to new mutiny, Where OPs big hits made quick Hammers hands unclean. From forth the line speed of these two foes A pair of star-cross’d centres take their tries; Those misadventured lineout overthrows […]
The date is 14th January and the mighty 4’s took a trip west to face a fierce (and ageing?) Wasps side who had a lot more to offer than anticipated. Hopes in the team were high following on from last weekends win over a strong Belsize Park team. We were lucky to find out that […]
It was another wonderfully cold and windy day for rugby when the Hammers made their way across London to face Hackney. It had been a tight victory to the Hammers when Hackney visited Hurlingham so we knew we were in for a tough battle. That was true straight from the off. Hard carries and hits […]
The 2s trip to Barnes this week was sure to be a tough game, facing an oppo who are challenging for the top of the table this year (and who’s 2s we played only 2 seasons ago in NC3!). As anticipated, Barnes came at us from kick off with early pressure. Their speed and physicality […]
Hammersmith & Fulham made the trip up to Watford this weekend to what can only be described as a fierce London derby against Fullerians. The home side have proven themselves as strong opponents this season with notable victories against Old Priorians and Belsize Park. With this in mind, the boys from West London prepared themselves […]
Thankfully the storm from last week has passed and the Hammers were blessed with (mostly) sunshine at Hurlingham to face off against Hampstead. After a tough loss in terrible conditions last week, Hammers were keen to bounce straight back and that’s exactly what we did. Hammers had possession from kick off and looked to make […]
The heavens opened on southwest London to leave Hurligham Parks looking more like a swamp than a rugby pitch, but this wouldn’t deter the men of Hammersmith. The return fixture against Chiswick 2s awaited what on paper would be a strong Hammers 3s. With the ref’s chat about cold IPAs and the apparent healthy Christmas […]
