Owner and Director Cathryn has had a busy weekend. Lead Physiotherapist with Northumberland RFU, she accompanied the Men’s Team to Twickenham as they played in the Bill Beaumont Division 2 Final at Allianz Stadium.
Sadly it wasn’t to be Northumberland’s day as they lost narrowly 28 - 30 to North Midlands. The lads played incredibly well and should be super proud of their performance yesterday and the previous 4 matches of the tournament.
