Live Stream

Wednesday’s game kicks off at 2.30pm and will be Haileybury’s first trip to Rugby School at 1st XV level since 2015, you can watch it all LIVE on the NextGenXV YouTube Channel.

Recent Form

Both sides are looking to bounce back from defeat in the opening weekend of the season. Haileybury were on the wrong side of a fantastically close game of rugby against Felsted on Saturday, going down 18-22 in one of the weekend’s most competitive games.

Rugby School were in front of the NextGenXV live cameras, as they are for every game this season, as they hosted Continental Tyres Schools Cup champions Oakham. Again it was a great game with so much exciting rugby and some wonderful tries, but in the end for the hosts it proved a tough opening day as Oakham proved that Cup winning class with a 42-24 victory.

Looking Back

It is the first meeting between the two for eight years, as mentioned, back in 2015 Rugby School got the better of things with a strong 44-17 victory. It had been an on/off fixture for a few years, Rugby School dominating the Win/Loss common with Haileybury’s best result in that period an 8-8 draw in 2010.

Haileybury’s last victory in the fixture was a 14-6 home victory in 2008, towards the end of the period when this fixture was a firm fixture in the calendar. They will be hoping to be able to repeat that on Wednesday, not just to inject momentum into the season, but also to perhaps see this return as a permanent fixture on the calendar.

Looking Forward

These two both have big live streamed games as their next fixtures as well. On Saturday Bedford School are the visitors to Rugby School, which will be live streamed for a 3.30pm Kick Off. Haileybury will have the weekend off but are next in action at Saracens’ StoneX Stadium on Wednesday 20th September, where they will be hosting Stamford School in front of the NextGenXV Live Stream cameras for a 7.15pm Kick Off.

You can watch both of those games LIVE on the NextGenXV YouTube Channel.
