Hammersmith & Fulham men’s 1st XV kickstarted their 2025 campaign with a trip south into deepest darkest Sussex to face Horsham RFC. After recent struggles, this had been identified as a ‘must win’ game both for team morale and for Regional 1 South Central survival hopes. With Horsham sitting in 9th and Hammers one point […]
Hammersmith & Fulham, the Hammers, the men-in-red, the boys from SW6, travelled away out of the environs of London further to the south west, to face Bracknell, a road trip that was undertaken while the winds and the rains of storm Darragh ravaged much of the British mainland. Undeterred, the men in red set out […]
It was a frigid, blustery day on the pitch, and while the weather certainly played its part, the game had its moments of excitement. The Hammers started the match with an uncharacteristic lack of intensity and aggression while on defence. The Lions took advantage, working their way up the pitch and scoring two tries early […]
There are 3 inevitabilities in life: Death, Taxes and Will Bretnall putting his card behind the bar at the Christmas Lunch. However, before we get onto Sunday, let’s talk about Saturday the 2nd December…. The Hammers rolled in after a week off after a sobering loss against OA’S, facing a must-win stretch between now and […]
The day was one intended for progress. Coming off a narrow loss two weeks prior, the Hammersmith & Fulham II XV were keen to build on their foundations against a Normans side who lay firmly at the bottom of the table. As we rocked up to the fortress of Richmond Athletics Ground, we assembled in […]
The day began with a somber and reflective mood, most certainly due to this match being played on remembrance weekend which was respected by both sides and supporters with a minute’s silence prior to kick off. What ensued afterwards was a real back-and-forth of a game, an arm wrestle – as some would refer to […]
Hammersmith and Fulham 2nd XV headed to Worthing looking for another big W on the road. Two weeks before the mighty 2s had enjoyed a big win against Camberley so hopes were high for another big W on the south coast. One member of the team (Miles O’Connor) was feeling slightly worse for wear after […]
Heart. It was on display in abundance for the 1st XV’s game against Camberley, a tough match against a tough opposition employing a game plan that played to their strengths, helped in no small part by Mother Nature dumping rain on the boys as they left the changing room. Thickening up the already-heavy pitch, Camberley’s […]
Captain’s Log: Star date 12.10.24. The Hammersmith Enterprise has discovered a new club deep in Womble territory. Backline resources are as thin as Harry Scarr’s hair. First impressions are of a sloped landscape and temperamental weather system. Lieutenant Marshall has already proposed we hold out for firmer ground. We dragged Rogan out of his party […]
