Promoted Eastbourne RFC get the season under way with the rearranged Sussex Cup final tomorrow.

It will be played at Crawley RFC with a 2pm kick-off against Horsham.

This has helped focus minds early on, with a very competitive intra-club game to try to earn a spot for the final.

Eastbourne Nomads, the club’s second team who won a second straight promotion last term, go to Seaford on September 9 for a friendly, ahead of their league campaign starting a week later at home to Hove twos.

The squad has trained well in pre-season. They have welcomed some very good colts and some older players who have returned from uni.
