Flying high following their dominant 50-8 victory which stopped Harvards’ two match winning streak last Saturday, Caribs’ will face a Royalians test when the T&T Rugby Football Union (TTRFU) Toyota Championship Division continues at the Caribs’ home turf, Queens Park Savannah (QPS), Port of Spain, today. Royalians faced Rainbow in their last encounter. Despite a credible performance from Rainbow, Royalians were victorious, 48-38.

Harvard will again have a challenge on their hands when they host Stag Trinidad Northern in a mouth watering encounter at the Harvard Pitch, QPS. In their last match on Saturday, Northern were emphatic 63-3 winners over Police. The venue for the match between winless and Police and Rainbow has been relocated from the St James Barracks to Royalians Ground (Savannah 2), QPS.

The two teams will be playing for either sides first four points at 4.30 pm, which is the start time for all three of the day’s matches. The two under-19 fixtures scheduled for tomorrow will commence at 3 pm. Royalians hosts the Youth Training Centre (YTC) at Royalians Pitch, while Caribs travels to Marabella Recreation Ground, Marabella, to take on Rainbow.
