Words from (Head Coach - Steve ) 🗣️
“The Basildon lads put in a solid performance in the sweltering heat at Wymondham RFC to over come a resilient Eastern Counties side. The win means Essex move onto a semi final this weekend meaning only 1 game away from a Twickenham appearance”

Huge well done from all of us at the club 💚💪🏼
