A great day and a historical fixture that we will build on in future years. Thank you to the Maritime Reserve football for their efforts and let's look forward to the game in 2025. @RNReserve @ArmyLGBT @GlosFA @NavyFootball1 @RNRRMRFootball @Armyfa1888 @BFBSSport #ARMY #NAVY
#ICYMI, the Maritime Reserves met the Army Reserve on the football pitch last week ⚽️ The result wasn’t what we wanted, but it was a great opportunity to bring #Reservists together for a friendly competition 🤝 Find out more from @ForcesNews:

A really encouraging performance from @Armyfa1888 Women v @RoyalNavy Women @HWFCOfficial tonight but an outstanding goal by the Navy No: 9 Jade Widdows was the difference. Well done both teams. @UKArmedForcesFA @ArmyLGBT @ArmySgtMajor @NavyFootball1 @ArmySportASCB @BFBSSport
A Jade Widdows second half goal for the Royal Navy was all that split the teams at the final whistle. The Army team can be proud of a very strong performance tonight.

What a fantastic game at The Rec tonight between England & Ireland U20s - a high scoring 32 all draw. Ireland still has a great chance to win the championship if they beat @scottishrugby convincedly next week. @BathRugby @bathrugbylive @IrishRugby @EnglandRugby #rugbyinireland
