Pilgrims set for season finale and promotion celebration
This Saturday, Pilgrims welcome Crowborough to the Marine Travel Ground for their final game of the Counties 1 season – a match that marks the end of a truly remarkable campaign.
Having secured promotion to Regional 2 South East (Level 6) for 2025/26, the Pilgrims have achieved a milestone few clubs can boast. In fact, Canterbury Rugby Club will be one of only 5 clubs in the RFU structure to have two teams in the top 284 – a testament to the strength and depth of the squad.
Join the Celebrations!
Make it a Super Saturday and celebrate with the team:
Start with a Curry Lunch from Saucy Flo’s at 1:45pm (£15 per head).
Book directly with Ted at saucyflos@gmail.com.
Kick-off at 3pm – enjoy the game, have a few beers, and cheer on the Pilgrims as they cap off their incredible season.
Stay for the Final Whistle – and await news from Medway, where the Canons are hoping to secure the Counties 4 title and achieve promotion to Counties 3. If they succeed, it will be another historic moment, further cementing Canterbury’s unique position within the RFU league structure.
Incoming Club Chair John Halliday looks forward to welcoming you all for what promises to be a memorable day at the club. Don’t miss it!
