Northumberland Rugby Union County Cup Draws Season 2025-26
Please note due to changes in the RFU Structured Season (which at this stage we are unable to share with you), the first round date has now been amended from 18th October to “Played on or before 15th November”.
As with previous communications if you wish to double up and play a league and cup double header, this is absolutely fine. In event of a draw on 80 minutes, the league result stands, extra time only applies to the cup result.
Please advise the County Office of when your matches are due to be played so we can ensure records are up to date.
