Match Cards - GMS Guidance

For Season 2025-26 we are trialling the EMC for CANDY 1 teams.  This is for result only.  No other information eg player information, team sheets, RFU ID numbers is required. 

Teams in CANDY 2 North and South and CANDY 3 North, South and Central are also very welcome to participate in the trial and use the EMC. 

As this is a trial, those who do use the EMC are also being asked to continue to submit results in the CANDY WhatsApp chat.
