There is going to be a packed afternoon at Butts Park Arena this Saturday for the final home game of 2019!
Nottingham are visiting in Round 7 of the Greene King IPA Championship, and with the teams separated by just one place and three points in the league table there is everything to play for in the chase for the top four and a bounce in momentum going into the New Year.

COVENTRY RUGBY FOUNDATION TAKEOVER
The on-pitch activities and stadium tours are part of the Coventry Rugby Foundation’s Takeover Day. The Foundation has been expanding its activities rapidly over the last few months, with Wheelchair Rugby, Project:500 and Reading and Rugby just three programmes to be using rugby to inspire young people and the wider community in the city of Coventry.
Donations can be given across Butts Park throughout the day. Thank you in advance for your generosity, and a special thanks to Robinson Manufacturing Ltd (Wheelchair Rugby) and Charter Savings Bank (Reading and Rugby) for their continued support.
