Edinburgh Rugby has today confirmed its themed fixtures for the 22/23 season!

With four unique themed nights planned, supporters can look forward to an array of different activities as we pay tribute to our local clubs, fans and Edinburgh Rugby greats.

Club Appreciation Night – Emirates Lions | Friday 7 October (kick-off 7.35pm)

The Edinburgh Rugby players will once again pull up the socks of their boyhood clubs when Emirates Lions come to town for the first Friday night lights fixture of the season – with club members earing 20% commission on tickets purchased for their club.

Following on from last season’s success, the fixture sees Edinburgh Rugby pay tribute to the wider grassroots game, with the likes of Grant Gilchrist and Darcy Graham sporting the red of Alloa and green of Hawick.

The club’s overseas players also got in on the act and embraced a local side to further strengthen links between Edinburgh Rugby and city’s amateur clubs.

Will Viliame Mata once again represent Broughton RFC? Can Emiliano Boffelli pull on the socks of Corstorphine Cougars? Stay tuned to find out…
