By Guest
26th May 2021 | Local Sport
For the first time in 455 days, Richmond Rugby will welcome members, supporters and families back to the Athletic Ground to watch live rugby, as they go head to head with Coventry this Saturday (Kick-off 2pm).
The Greene King IPA Championship fixture is set to be the first event to have crowds back at the Athletic Ground since Richmond's 27-10 victory over Canterbury on Saturday 29th February 2020.
The club has completed a vigorous health and safety review and have implemented a wide range of COVID-19 protocols to ensure the fixture can go ahead with a reduced and socially distanced crowd.
Richmond Director of Rugby Steve Hill said: "We are delighted to be welcoming our supporters back to the Athletic Ground this Saturday. It's going to be a hugely entertaining clash, against quality opposition, and the weather is looking spectacular too. We can't wait to see the Richmond faithful and our local community back at the club cheering us on."

Please note: All match tickets must be pre-purchased online before the game. There will be no tickets available at the gate on Saturday.
