Rugby: Ramsey excited for return to English league system

Northern side will compete in same division as Vagabonds for 25/26

Ramsey Rugby Club says it's excited to be making its return to the English leagues system for the upcoming new season.

The northern club is moving into the structure for the first time in five years and will compete in Counties 3 ADM Lancashire/Cheshire.

That means they'll be competing in the same division as fellow Manx side, Vagabonds this campaign.

Ramsey's Club Captain, Josh Corteen and Club Secretary, Will Moffatt are hopeful this journey will have longer-term benefits for the club both on and off the pitch:

The first half of fixtures for the new Counties 3 ADM Lancashire/Cheshire season have been confirmed with Ramsey set to start their season on Saturday, 6 September when they host Congleton at Mooragh Park.

Elsewhere, the first 'Manx derby' of 25/26 is currently penned in for Saturday, 29 November when Ramsey welcome Vagabonds to Mooragh Park.

Separately, Vagabonds will be starting their new season away at Burnley on Saturday, 6 September.
