If you would like to see some vintage rugby union, then you will be keen to watch the match between The International Legends and Devon & Somerset Fire & Rescue Service Select XV. The Chairman of the Exeter Chiefs is generously hosting the event at Sandy Park, Exeter, kick off at 3pm on Saturday March 24.

The charity rugby match is supporting the Eddie Forbes Fund a former fire fighter from Plymouth, who has been diagnosed with motor neurone disease, the incurable, life-shortening illness. Eddie was medically retired from the fire service last year.

The International Legends are an invitational side including former British Lions and international players who play in tournaments all around the world such as The Bermuda Classics and Hong Kong Sevens.

Area Manager Alex Hanson said ‘This is a fantastic opportunity for Rugby fans in the Southwest to see a select international side play at Sandy Park whilst supporting a very worthwhile cause for one of our Firefighters who finds himself in the most difficult of circumstances.’

Tickets are available for only £10 and can be purchased on line at the Exeter Chief’s website.
