RUGBY UNION: Chinnor and Henley in early clash

Chinnor's first home game in National 3 South next season will be a derby with Henley Hawks.

Henley will visit Kingsey Road on Saturday, September 13 with the return match at Dry Leas on Saturday, January 3.

Chinnor open up with a trip to London Scottish on Saturday, September 6, with Henley travelling to Barking.

Promotion and relegation from last season have led to Rugby Lions being trans- ferred from National 3 North to South.

Grove are looking for a new coach after Neil Osborne resigned due to work commit- ments.

They hope to have a new coaching team in place before pre-season training starts on Saturday, July 5.

Club captain Andy Walsh said: "Neil has struggled to commit the time needed to coach and develop the Grove senior sides.

"Grove RFC would like to thank Neil for his hard work over the last few years.
