ORKNEY RFC will host two big matches tomorrow, Saturday - with a
championship and a cup up for grabs - as the rugby season comes to an
exciting climax at Pickaquoy.
Orkney's First XV need a win of any kind to secure the Scottish Hydro
Caledonia 1 title - and promotion to National 3 - as they meet Kinross
RFC for the final fixture of a long but highly successful league
campaign.
The match is due to kick-off at 1.15pm on the infield pitch. But before
that rugby fans can cheer on Orkney's Second XV against RAF Kinloss in
the Brin Cup Final. It has a 12 noon kick-off on one of the outfield
pitches at Pickaquoy.
