Jersey have confirmed the dates and kick-off times for the
club's home fixtures in the Greene King IPA Championship and
British & Irish Cup this season.
Although the Islanders' 11 league games will be staged in the
traditional Saturday afternoon slot, Jersey will play an evening
floodlit fixture at St Peter for the first time: the B&I Cup
match against Plymouth Albion on Friday 28th November.
The majority of Jersey's away fixtures have now been confirmed by
the home club. Most of those finalised thus far will be on Saturday
afternoons; London Scottish v Jersey will be a 5.30pm kick-off on
Saturday 15th November to tie in with the England v South Africa
international at nearby Twickenham, which starts at 2.30pm.
**
The following away games remain to be confirmed: Nottingham,
Worcester and Leeds Carnegie (set to be renamed Yorkshire Carnegie)
in the Championship; plus Leinster 'A' and Wales 3 in the B&I
Cup. The Welsh side to take on Jersey will be determined following
qualifying play-offs for Principality Premiership clubs at the
start of the season, details of which have yet to be
published.
Kick-off times for Jersey's August pre-season games have also been
confirmed. The match against Ayr will be at 4pm on Saturday 16th
August. The following weekend Jersey v Bath is at 3pm, followed by
Jersey Athletic v Tunbridge Wells at 6pm. On Saturday 30th August
the Athletic will take on Blackheath 2nds ('the Heathens') at
12noon, with the 1st XV game between Jersey and Blackheath starting
at 4pm.
** After the publication of this article,
JRFC was advised of a change of date/KO time for the away fixture
against London Scottish in November. This will now take place on
Friday November 14th, KO 7.45pm. Details of the change can be
